Avengers: Doomsday has already crossed ₹1,000 crore in advance bookings — and it hasn’t even hit screens yet. That’s not a typo. The film, set for a December 18 global release, is on track to become the first Marvel movie to breach that milestone before opening day. According to Telugu Filmibeat, the numbers are being driven by massive pre-sale momentum across North America, Brazil, the UK, and Europe. Three months out, it’s already pulled in $100 million, roughly ₹1,000 crore. Making it a record in Hollywood history for pre-release collections. The film, directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Pedro Pascal, Paul Rudd, Anthony Mackie, and Vanessa Kirby. It’s backed by Marvel Studios, Walt Disney Studios, and Motion Picture Studios, with a reported budget of $700 million (₹5,800 crore), including $300 million in promotional spend. Trade sources estimate it could cross $1 billion worldwide within its first weekend, a feat that would see it surpass Avatar and re-crown Endgame as the highest-grossing film ever. The buzz isn’t just about nostalgia. It’s about scale. And timing. With the franchise’s next phase still unconfirmed, this one feels like a final reckoning. If the numbers hold, it won’t just be a box office win. It’ll be a statement. But whether the story lives up to the hype? That’s still seven weeks away.
