Apparently lots of folks are interested in checking out Avengers: Infinity War, if pre-sale ticket numbers are any indication. The Marvel movie mash-up is already selling twice as many tickets ahead of its release as Black Panther did during the same time frame. That's insane considering Ryan Coogler's film is still in the middle of its record-breaking run. Insaner still is that Avengers: Infinity War pre-sale tickets are already more than the last seven MCU films combined, including Black Panther, which likely makes up a near majority of those numbers. More box-office records are poised to fall when this juggernaut arrives in just a couple of weeks and we can only chalk it up to the Hawkeye Fanbase turning out in droves.

Scripted by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, and directed by Anthony and Joe RussoAvengers: Infinity War stars Josh BrolinRobert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Chadwick BosemanJeremy Renner we guess?, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, Don Cheadle, Anthony Mackie, Sebastian Stan, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Tom Holland, Benedict Cumberbatch, Paul Rudd, and Tom Hiddleston. Look for it in theaters on April 27th.

Pre-sale ticket-seller Fandango is tooting (or tweeting) their own horn here, but it's clear that interest in Avengers: Infinity War is approaching a fever pitch:

As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
