The epic finale to Disney-owned Marvel's 22-movie"Infinity Saga" story-arc took in an estimated $1.5 million at home and abroad in its 13th weekend to bring its total since its April 26 release to $2.7902 billion.Superhero blockbuster "Avengers: Endgame" has officially become the biggest movie of all time, Disney confirmed Sunday, ending the 10-year reign of James Cameron's "Avatar" atop the global box office.
Marvel Studios and its parent company pre-empted the announcement on Saturday, revealing that "Endgame" was just $500,000 behind as of Friday, and would "close this gap by tomorrow." It set a new standard for Hollywood blockbusters in its opening weekend with stunning hauls of $357 million in North America and $1.2 billion worldwide.
"Of course, even with the passage of a decade, the impact of James Cameron's 'Avatar' remains as powerful as ever, and the astonishing achievements of both of these films are ongoing proof of the power of movies," he added. The film employs hyper-realistic computer-generated images and has a voice cast including Donald Glover as Simba and Beyonce as Nala, as well as Seth Rogen, Chiwetel Ejiofor and James Earl Jones.
