Having beaten out Frozen and Iron Man 3 to become the sixth highest grossing film of all-time, Avengers: Age of Ultron has now beaten Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 to take the fifth spot.
The movie added another $6 million domestically over the weekend to bring its total up to $1.3 billion worldwide. That puts it in fifth place behind fellow 2015 release Furious 7 ($1.5 billion), Marvel’s The Avengers ($1.5 billion), Titanic ($2.1 billion) and Avatar ($2.7 billion). It seems unlikely now that Avengers: Age of Ultron will catch up with Furious 7 or its predecessor, but being the fifth biggest movie of all-time is hardly something to complain about.
Avengers: Age of Ultron is out now and sees Joss Whedon directing a cast that includes Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Chris Evans (Captain America), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Mark Ruffalo (The Incredible Hulk), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Don Cheadle (War Machine), Cobie Smulders (Maria Hill), Samuel L. Jackson (Nick Fury), Paul Bettany (JARVIS / The Vision), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Quicksilver), Elizabeth Olsen (Scarlet Witch), Hayley Atwell (Peggy Carter), Idris Elba (Heimdall), Anthony Mackie (Falcon), James Spader (Ultron), Stellen Skarsgard (Erik Selvig), Thomas Kretschmann (Baron Strucker), Josh Brolin (Thanos), Claudia Kim (Dr. Cho), Andy Serkis (Uylsses Klaw), Henry Goodman (Dr. List), Julie Delpy (Madame B) and Linda Cardellini (Laura Barton).
