The Avengers film was highly anticipated, especially as the "assemble" of Earth's mightiest heroes goes to the big screen. The movie features Chris Evans as Captain America, the icon that was apparently the role model of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s agent Phil Coulson; Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk, the green mean alter-ego of Dr. Banner; Chris Hemsworth as Thor, thunder god, wielder of Mjolnir, and son of Odin; Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Starks, the handsome, playboy, philanthropist and owner of the Iron Man suit; Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, the insanely accurate marksman; and Scarlet Johansson as Black Widow, the sexy Russian spy that gave a balance to the almost domination of testosterone in the movie.
As the theaters opened during the first weekend of The Avenger's release, people flocked and didn't waste precious time just to get tickets. By the end of its weekend opener, The Avengers recorded a stunning $200 million in ticket sales. The movie already earned a whopping $441 million since its international release on April 25. That gives a total of more than $641 million in a little less than 2 weeks since it was released.
That amount also ensured The Avengers to the history books as it surpassed Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows Part 2, which had an opening weekend with $169.2 million. And now it's on its way to the $1 billion mark, something that's a really great feat for a movie.
