Avengers: Endgame is now the most popular film of all time!

The Marvel movie is estimated to have made a massive $2.7902bn since its release in April this year, just beating Avatar's record of $2.7897bn.

Avengers: Endgame was re-released last month after the film's initial release earned it the No.2 spot for box-office sales worldwide.

It's latest success is by no means the first record broken by Avengers: Endgame.

Not only did it make a record-breaking $1.2bn (拢929m) in world ticket sales in its first week, it also enjoyed the biggest opening ever for a film in the UK and Ireland, taking 拢43.7 million.

Endgame is the 22nd film in the Marvel Avengers series, starring heroes Captain Marvel, Thor and Black Widow as they try to defeat Thanos.

The first Avengers movie, Iron Man, came out in 2008.

Which other films have earned big bucks?

Avengers: Endgame and Avatar aren't the only films to have become worldwide successes.

Titanic, which was released back in 1997, made $2.187bn.

It became the highest grossing film in 1998 but was knocked off the top spot after a 12-year run.

Both Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Avengers: Infinity War have also made over $2bn.
