Avengers: Age of Ultron overtakes Iron Man 3 and Frozen to become sixth-biggest movie of all time

May 27, 2015 by Gary Collinson

Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron has continued its climb up the all-time box office chart, overtaking fellow Disney released Iron Man 3 ($1.215 billion) and Frozen ($1.274 billion), having pulled in $1.278 billion by close of play on Monday.

The Joss Whedon-directed sequel is fast closing in on Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, which sits in fourth with $1.342 billion, although the superhero epic may run out of steam before it catches the year’s biggest earner Fast & Furious 7 – which has just become the fourth film to hit $1.5 billion globally – as well as its 2012 predecessor The Avengers.

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).
