A global phenomenon: 'Avengers: Endgame' holds an impressive record as the second-highest-grossing film worldwide, with $1.94B internationally, only surpassed by the cinematic masterpiece 'Avatar' and its $2.924 billion global haul. Its opening weekend alone brought in a staggering $1.2 billion worldwide, solidifying its place in box office history.
But wait, there's more! As if the MCU news wasn't enough, Disney has also shuffled its release calendar, impacting beloved franchises.
