‘Avengers: Doomsday’ Presales Keep Smashing Records Overseas as Release Draws Near

With just over a month until it hits theaters, ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ is already showing it could be one of the biggest box office events in years. Advance ticket sales for Marvel’s crossover have been climbing for months. The latest numbers from international trackers suggest the momentum is only getting stronger.

The film’s presale run has been historic from the start. When presales opened on July 20, the film reportedly earned $16.5 million in 24 hours from premium-format screenings at around 1,000 domestic theaters, roughly double the first-day presales of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’. Disney’s chief financial officer later told an investor conference that the film had sold more than $50 million in domestic tickets, with over 70% tied to Disney’s new Infinity Vision premium format.

Now, fresh tracker data shared on Box Office Theory’s forums points to new milestones in several markets. In Mexico, tracker Carlangonz reported that at T-34 days, ‘Doomsday’ has passed ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ as the biggest presale title in his sample, with all locations above 50% occupancy and most above 60%. In Italy, tracker Mike4 reported the film has passed 3,500 tickets sold at T-35 days.

Turkey has posted some of the most eye-catching numbers. A user tracking the market reported that daily ticket sales there are now 82.3% higher than on November 10. The same tracker claimed the film’s latest daily increase is more than 1,000% higher than that of ‘Dune: Part Three’, its December box office rival.

That spike seems tied to Marvel’s latest surprise. Less than 24 hours after the ‘VisionQuest’ finale revealed Wanda Maximoff survived the collapse of Mount Wundagore, ‘Doomsday’ saw a significant surge in advance ticket sales. Daily seat-tracking data out of Turkey recorded a 42.4% single-day jump immediately after the finale’s release.

The new Mexican milestone builds on an already impressive run. Presales there began on September 28, initially limited to theaters with Infinity Vision certification at chains Cinépolis and Cinemex. One tracker reported weeks ago that ‘Doomsday’ had already surpassed the entire presale cycle of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ and made nearly 3.5 times the full presale run of ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’.

Mexico is also one of the film’s biggest markets overall. According to SEATmio data, the United States leads with 3.21 million tickets, followed by Mexico with 1.21 million. Across all monitored markets, SEATmio counts 9.61 million tickets sold in 8,071 cinemas.

The worldwide picture is just as strong. Worldwide presales passed $100 million on October 6 and reached about $125 million shortly after. Forbes reported that the total includes about $65 million domestically and $60 million overseas. The film also became the fastest ever to pass $1 million in presales in both Brazil and the United Kingdom.

Projections vary widely. Global Box Office projects a domestic opening of $260 million to $300 million, while tracker AnthonyJPHer has forecast around $120 million in Thursday previews and an opening weekend between $425 million and $450 million. Some estimates suggest it could gross over $1 billion worldwide in its opening weekend and top the North American record of $360 million set by ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’.

It’s worth keeping these numbers in perspective. Many of the latest figures come from fan trackers using samples of selected theaters, rather than official studio data. Global presale totals come from a third-party tracker and have not been independently confirmed by Disney.

Presales are not box office, and strong demand does not guarantee a record run. Huge advance sales can also hint at a front-loaded opening, which could make the first weekend look bigger than the long-term run. Still, the signs are clearly pointing to a massive debut when ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ opens on December 18.
