Daily Box Office Report
Thursday, May 2, 2019
By Daniel Garris
| Disney’s Avengers: Endgame rounded out its historic first week domestically with $21.543 million on Thursday. That did represent a sharp 14.7 percent decline from Wednesday, but obviously in
the bigger picture the film’s performance yesterday was still extremely impressive. In comparison, last year’s Avengers: Infinity War decreased 8.6 percent on its first Thursday to gross $15.501 million. Three new wide releases
entering the marketplace on Thursday evening (Sony’s The Intruder, Lionsgate’s Long Shot and STXfilms’ UglyDolls) likely played a part in yesterday’s sharp decline for Avengers: Endgame. While collective
preview grosses weren’t much for the three new releases, Avengers: Endgame still likely started to lose a few showtimes last night as a result of the added presence of the three new films
(and the number of screens per theatre Avengers: Endgame was playing on during its first week). |
| The seven-day domestic start for Avengers: Endgame stands at a record-breaking $473.895 million. That is a very impressive 21.2 percent stronger than the $390.856 million seven-day gross of previous
record-holder 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Avengers: Endgame is also running 40.1 percent ahead of the $338.333 million seven-day haul of Avengers: Infinity War. Yesterday saw Avengers: Endgame
zoom past the $459.006 million final domestic gross of 2015’s Avengers: Age of Ultron. Avengers: Endgame is already the 15th highest grossing film of all-time domestically (without taking into account ticket-price inflation). |
| Internationally, Avengers: Endgame continued to soar with an estimated $100.0 million on Thursday. That brings the film’s international total to $1.312 billion and global haul to $1.786 billion.
Avengers: Endgame is already the fourth highest grossing film of all-time internationally and the fifth highest grossing film of all-time globally. Thursday’s international performance for Avengers: Endgame was led by a
$52.1 million take in China. Avengers: Endgame passed the $500 million mark in China yesterday and has grossed a massive $511.6 million in nine days. Additional international totals by market for Avengers: Endgame
through Thursday include $71.1 million in the United Kingdom, $64.0 million in South Korea, $50.9 million in Mexico, $44.2 million in Brazil, $43.7 million in India, $37.9 million in Australia, $37.1 million in Germany,
$35.4 million in France, $27.1 million in Japan, $25.3 million in Italy, $25.0 million in the Philippines, $24.8 million in Indonesia, $24.1 million in Russia and $20.8 million in Spain. |
