The re-release of Avengers: Endgame has led to a major resurgence at the domestic box office.
According to Deadline, Endgame -- which earned $1.98 million domestically last weekend -- is projected to see a 200% increase as it rakes in $5.9 million, once again rejoining the weekend's top ten highest grossing films. This haul puts Endgame at $841.7 million domestically and more than $2.757 billion globally. As final totals for foreign and domestic markets are not yet available, this number may change.
The re-release puts Endgame on track to defeat James Cameron's Avatar, which sits at $2.787 billion, Endgame only needs to make approximately $30 million to close the gap and become the highest-grossing film ever.
The Endgame re-release features the addition of an introduction, a deleted scene starring Bruce Banner/Hulk, a teaser for Spider-Man: Far From Home, a commemorative poster and a new tribute to Stan Lee.
In terms of the box office more generally, Toy Story 4 will triumph over the box office for the second weekend in a row, taking in $56.3 million for a grand total of approximately $234.5 million domestically. Annabelle Comes Home, the third installment in the horror doll's franchise, will open to $30.5 due to its Wednesday opening. This is lowest opening for any of the Annabelle films, putting the newest Conjuring Universe film on track to be the lowest-grossing of the trilogy.
