The epic conclusion to Marvel’s “Avengers” saga is bringing in superhero box-office receipts.

Disney/Marvel’s “Avengers: Endgame” is shattering opening weekend records, hauling in an estimated $158 million so far in North America — including a record $60 million from Thursday night previews, according to Deadline.com.

That’s about $39 million more than the record set by “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” of 119.1 million.

The fourth and final “Avengers” movie could top $315 million this weekend, the website projected.

The movie launched at a record 4,662 North American theaters this weekend — the widest release of any movie at the domestic box office.

Its three-plus hour running has some theaters adding extra late-night showings or even staying open all night to accommodate the crowds, People reported.

And though it appears clear that “Endgame” marks the final saga for the “Avengers” era — spoiler alert: there’s no end-credit tease for the next movie — there are six additional films in the works, including a “Black Widow” feature and “Black Panther” sequel, but Marvel hasn’t officially announced those projects yet, according to Business Insider.
