"Avengers: Doomsday" Tops $40M In Pre-Sales

Marvel’s Phase Six crossover becomes the first film to top $40 million in U.S. pre-sales 100 days before release.

  • On Tuesday, September 8, 2026, Avengers: Doomsday set an industry record by crossing $40 million in domestic pre-sales, a full 100 days before its December 18, 2026, theatrical release.
  • Global Box Office reports this milestone makes Doomsday the first film to achieve such volume in U.S. advance ticket sales this early, with pre-sales for the Phase Six tentpole initially launching for PLF screens in July.
  • Spider-Man: Brand New Day also hit $40 million in domestic pre-sales, though it reached that mark around 40 days out with a compressed sales window after tickets became available less than a week before release.
  • Directors Joe and Anthony Russo are utilizing an 'improvisation-based' approach, starting production without a finished script; the film unites the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and Avengers, while introducing Robert Downey as Victor.
  • Despite online debates regarding production updates, excitement for the Phase Six tentpole remains high; even with Before Avengers Endgame: Encore promising additional footage, fans are prioritizing new stories featuring these heroes ahead of the December premiere.
