Los Angeles, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 24th Apr, 2019 ) :After nearly two dozen films and billions of Dollars in ticket sales around the globe, the Avengers are gearing up for a final time -- and their last adventure could shatter all box office records.
"Avengers: Endgame" is the final installment of a wildly ambitious 22-film arc featuring the beloved superheroes of the Marvel universe, many of them the creations of late comic book legend Stan Lee.
It hits theaters this week -- parts of Asia and Europe get the first view of the three-hour epic on Wednesday, and it gets its wide release in the US and Canada on Friday. Pundits are predicting a debut weekend that could break records with the first billion-dollar opening in history.
That would easily beat out the previous record holder, "Avengers: Infinity War," the first part of the "Infinity Saga" -- as it was dubbed by Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige, who has produced every single movie in the franchise -- which opened in 2018 with $640.
5 million.
After Monday's star-studded world premiere in Hollywood, the six original Avengers celebrated the end of the road Tuesday at the iconic TCL Chinese Theatre.
Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) assembled for a final time with Feige at the TCL Chinese Theatre, where they signed blocks of cement and marked them with handprints.
"It's been an amazing ride," Ruffalo -- who attempted a handstand while waiting for the cement to set -- said of the 10-year project.
The 21 preceding films have earned about $19 billion globally, and though "Endgame" marks the end of the current narrative arc, Marvel Studios is far from through.
