Marvel may not have been at its best for a while but you cannot disagree with the fact that the Marvel Studios has given some of the highest-grossing superhero movies ever! From power-packed action to amazingly written storylines to fascinating CGI, no other superhero franchise still comes close to Marvel.
Let’s take a memory pill and reminisce about the top 5 highest-grossing superhero movies by MCU which were a banger on the theater screens and earned massively well!
5. Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)
The film that introduced characters like the Scarlet Witch and Vision obviously has to be on the list! Despite having some mixed reviews, the storyline of the Avengers teaming up to save the world from Ultron, the gone-mad AI, was impressive and enjoyable. Joss Whedon’s creativity and all the other things that the MCU is best at earned this movie $1.4 billion from all around the world.
4. The Avengers (2012)
It was the first MCU movie to bring together all the different storylines from the previous phase of movies and build further upon it. The way this Joss Whedon-directed masterpiece showcased all emotions, be it humor, pain, and aggression, was one of the reasons it grossed over $1.5 billion worldwide! It truly paved the way for later MCU projects of the same kind.
3. Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021)
Did you forget the feeling of seeing all three Spidermen together on the screen? Well, us neither! The adrenaline rush that the movie gave us even before its release was something else. After Endgame, this Marvel movie stood out as the one to do exceptionally well at the box office with a worldwide collection of $1.9 billion.
2. Avengers: Infinity War (2018)
It is safe to say that Infinity War grossed less so Endgame could gross more. The over-the-top eagerness of the fans for Endgame showed that the Russo brothers-directed “Avengers: Infinity War” had done its job way too well! There were so many big things happening in the movie but the biggest one has to be its box-office collection that crossed $2.05 billion globally!
1. Avengers: Endgame (2019)
Does this movie need any introduction? HECK NO! The way the scenes and dialogues of this movie remain encrusted in the hearts of all the MCU fans is something that might never happen again. From giving a perfect start to where Infinity War ended to finishing the movie on a perfect note (not for Natasha and Tony Stark, of course!), this movie deserves way more than the $2.8 billion it made globally. No lies!
Far above the sum of money that these MCU films earned, there lies the love of people for this whole franchise and its characters, which remains the most precious. As MCU continues to grow and outgrow itself, let’s hope we get to see more such films again!
