The weekend numbers have come in and Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame is set to cross over $800 million at the domestic box office this weekend while Disney’s Aladdin revisits a familiar world and opens up to over $105 million.
Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Endgame is knock, knock, knocking on Avatar‘s door and over Memorial Day weekend took another step in the right direction as it comes to cross the $800 million mark at the box office. Avengers: Endgame currently sits at $2.677 billion, just under $111 million from passing Avatar as the number one grossing movie in the world.
Disney’s live-action Aladdin movie proved unaffected by the blue Genie (Will Smith) backlash and is launching to over $105 million, topping Disney’s previous best three day opening with Solo: A Star Wars Story. Aladdin was estimated to bring in an optimistic $86 million so the results have surely floored Disney since it’s made over half its budget back on opening weekend.
Either way, with the success of Aladdin and the continuing success of Avengers: Endgame, it looks like Disney’s dominance at the box office will keep on going as we lead up to the release of its second live-action film of the year in a retelling of The Lion King.

Top Actors To Replace Ben Affleck In Matt Reeves’ ‘The Batman’
Ben Affleck is officially out as Batman and it’s a pretty sad day.
Words cannot describe how sad I am to see Ben Affleck announce that he’s no longer Batman. His Batman is why I do what I do. In Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, I fell in love with his comic book-accurate interpretation of the Caped Crusader. It was a breath of fresh air and it felt like we finally had the one true Batman.
Three years have quickly sped by and we’re officially going to receive a new Batman for his next movie. Last night, Ben Affleck announced that he will not return as the Dark Knight in Matt Reeves’ The Batman and now everyone’s attention has moved towards wanting to know who the next Bruce Wayne will be. Matt Reeves is said to want an actor that’s around 20 years younger than Affleck while Warner Bros. wants someone older. My guess is that Reeves wants a fresh start while the studio wants an older actor for crossover potential.
In this list, I will discuss the actors I think can replace Ben Affleck as Batman using the parameters that Matt Reeves and Warner Bros. want. Hit Next to see our picks to play the Batman.
