Scarlet Witch Returns: Avengers Doomsday Pre-Sales Soar
13 Nov
Summary
- Movie surpasses $70 million in North American pre-sales.
- Scarlet Witch's return significantly boosts ticket demand.
- Film set for a potential $300 million+ opening weekend.
Avengers: Doomsday is on track for a colossal opening weekend, having already surpassed $70 million in North American pre-sales. This figure is expected to climb as the film inches closer to a $100 million pre-sale milestone ahead of its December 18, 2026 release.
The resurgence in ticket sales was significantly fueled by the reveal of Elizabeth Olsen's return as the Scarlet Witch in a post-credit scene. Reports indicate that this revelation led to a surge in demand, with over 60,000 additional tickets sold for opening-night previews in just 48 hours.
Industry predictions suggest that Avengers: Doomsday could achieve a domestic opening weekend of over $300 million, potentially becoming the second film of 2026 to break this barrier, following Spider-Man: Brand New Day. The movie's plot involves heroes from three different universes uniting to combat Doctor Doom amidst a collapsing multiverse, set 14 months after Thunderbolts (2025).
