Avengers: Endgame rolled out across the world last weekend to fan's delight. Fan excitement is not necessarily an indicator of financial success, however. After the unmitigated success of Avengers: Infinity War, predictions about the box office takings for Endgame were high.
As of writing, Avengers: Endgame has made Marvel over £1 billion.
According to Box Office Mojo, Avengers: Endgame has made a worldwide total of $1.44 billion (£1.1 billion).
This gives Avengers: Endgame the largest opening weekend of all-time.
Both in North America 'domestic' territory and globally, Endgame broke the largest opening weekend record.
