Avengers Endgame: Encore Expected to Beat 3 Huge New Release Movies at the Box Office
- On Friday, September 25, 2026, Disney and Marvel Studios released Avengers: Endgame Encore, the 2019 blockbuster re-release featuring four minutes of new footage designed to bridge the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday.
- Director Joe Russo described the added material as "footage that is set in the Doomsday story," introducing Doctor Doom and establishing a multiversal incursion threat for the December 18, 2026, release.
- New scenes feature Loki visiting Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter, TVA agents monitoring 3,000 colliding universes, and Doctor Doom visiting Bruce Banner, menacingly stating, "I'm here to collect you."
- Industry trackers project the reissue to gross $25 million to $28 million this opening weekend, positioning the franchise to eventually retake Avatar's $2.92 billion all-time global box office record.
- Disney launched its "Infinity Vision" campaign alongside the reissue, promoting premium formats across 1,300 screens to bypass limited IMAX availability and maximize theatrical returns for Doomsday's December premiere.
