I am sure Marvel is thrilled with this.
AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR” SELLING TWICE AS MANY TICKETS AS “BLACK PANTHER” IN FANDANGO PRESALES, AND OUTPACING LAST SEVEN MCU MOVIES COMBINED
With a little more than two weeks to go until its theatrical release on April 27, Marvel’s “Avengers: Infinity War” is selling more than double the amount of tickets on Fandango as “Black Panther” at the same point in the sales cycle. (Fandango sold more than 30% of the U.S. opening weekend box office for “Black Panther.”)
In fact, at the same point in the Fandango sales cycle, “Infinity War” is outselling the last seven Marvel Cinematic Universe titles combined, including:
| · “Black Panther” |
| · “Thor: Ragnarok” |
| · “Spider-Man: Homecoming” |
| · “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” |
| · “Doctor Strange” |
| · “Captain America: Civil War” |
| · “Ant-Man” |
In terms of Fandango presales, “Avengers: Infinity War” is also:
- The company’s top preseller among April releases, already surpassing total presales for 2015’s “Furious 7.”
- Pacing to be the top superhero preseller in Fandango history, on track to surpass “Black Panther.”
“Infinity War” has built up such unprecedented anticipation that it’s pacing to break records, the likes of which we have never seen before for a superhero movie,” says Fandango Managing Editor Erik Davis. “Moviegoers are rushing to guarantee their seats in advance for what is sure to be one of the most talked-about movies of the decade.”
Starting today, Fandango is offering limited edition “Avengers: Infinity War” collectible movie character gift cards here. (See sample images attached.) With every Fandango VIP purchase of “Infinity War” tickets, Fandango is offering a complimentary “Infinity War” poster by popular artist Kaz Oomori from Fandango Fanshop, while supplies last. Fans have the option to choose one of five exclusive posters, featuring Black Panther, Okoye, Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, Hulk, Black Widow, Guardians of the Galaxy and many others.
