Avengers: Endgame was originally released in theaters on April 26th with the rerelease featuring bonus footage hitting theaters on June 28th. The Marvel Cinematic Universe film, which is officially the top-grossing film of all time, is now the longest-running theatrical release of 2019. As of Wednesday, the movie was still playing in just over 100 theaters in the U.S., according to box office receipts reported by exhibitors and studios.

As of today, Avengers: Endgame has earned $2,796,267,086 worldwide and $858,365,685 domestically. The film took in an extra $16,000 on Labor Day despite already being available for home-viewing on both digital and Blu-ray. While it seems like an extreme amount of time for a movie to be in theaters, it's not uncommon for a big blockbuster film to still be available on the big screen despite being released on digital. In fact, Avengers: Endgame's digital release was on July 30th, only three months after the film hit theaters.

Similarly, Spider-Man: Far From Home, the follow-up to Avengers: Endgame, was released on June 26th and is still playing in select theaters. Now, the Spidey flick will be available digitally on September 17th and on Blu-ray and DVD two weeks later, on October 1.
