  • Disney’s movie ticket sales and merchandise licensing business has a strong tailwind from its Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise. Licensing its intellectual property is a $3.2 billion/year business for Disney.
  • After the massive $1.33 billion success of Black Panther, Disney’s Avengers: Infinity War is another giant blockbuster movie.
  • Avengers: Infinity War posted a new record in U.S. domestic opening weekend box office revenue with $250 million in estimated ticket sales.
  • Avengers: Infinity War is also a big hit in foreign markets. Its 3-day opening weekend gross is $380 million. This international gross is without China’s contribution.
