Overview
- The rerelease, which opens Thursday in some Middle Eastern markets and Friday globally, returns Avengers: Endgame to cinemas with a few minutes of new material and a post‑credits tag linking it to Avengers: Doomsday.
- Marvel and theater listings show two certified runtimes for Encore: a standard cut at 3 hours, 3 minutes, 3 seconds and an IMAX/Infinity Vision cut at 3 hours, 6 minutes, 14 seconds that contains the extra minutes.
- Disney introduced Infinity Vision as a new premium large‑format certification to guarantee brighter images, larger screens and stronger sound, and Encore will play in Standard, IMAX, Infinity Vision, ScreenX and 4DX auditoriums.
- Early box‑office forecasts project a North American opening weekend in the $22 million–$27 million range, and analysts say the rerelease could push Endgame’s lifetime totals higher on the way toward past box‑office milestones.
- Marvel has confirmed added footage and an exclusive Doomsday preview but has not detailed the new scenes, leaving casting links and the exact content unconfirmed and prompting debate over premium‑only access.
