‘Avengers: Endgame’ topples ‘Star Wars’ preview record

‘Avengers: Endgame’ topples ‘Star Wars’ preview record

'Avengers: Endgame' has gotten off to a mighty start at the box office, earning a record $60 million from Thursday night preview showings in North America, according to the Walt Disney Co.

The previous record holder was 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' which earned $57 million from Thursday previews in 2015, though 'Avengers: Endgame' was shown in more theaters.

Internationally, Disney said on Friday that 'Avengers: Endgame' has already grossed $305 million in its first two days in theaters with over half of that tally coming from China.

Box office prognosticators are projecting that the film could earn anywhere from $260 million to $300 million domestically, and between $800 million and $1 billion globally when the dust settles and final numbers are reported Monday.
