Disney+ now lists the Doomsday-connected Endgame re-release for Friday, Nov. 13, just 49 days after it hit theaters and exactly five weeks before Avengers: Doomsday opens.
The re-release that made Avengers: Endgame the biggest movie ever is heading home. Avengers Endgame: Encore is “coming to Disney+ on November 13, 2026,” according to its official Disney+ page in the U.S. and several other countries.
That’s Friday, two days from now. It’s also 49 days after Encore opened in theaters on Sept. 25, and exactly five weeks before Avengers: Doomsday arrives on Dec. 18.
The Disney+ page sticks to the basics. It’s rated PG-13 and calls the movie the “epic conclusion to the Infinity Saga.” There’s no runtime listed yet, and Disney hasn’t said which cut of the new footage will stream.
Fans had been hunting for a date since August, when a Disney+ landing page first popped up with no date on it. GamesRadar guessed Thanksgiving. Disney beat that by almost two weeks.
What is Avengers: Endgame Encore?
It’s the 2019 movie with extra scenes that point straight at Doomsday. The Russo brothers called the re-release “required viewing” for the new Avengers movie back in August.
Encore hit theaters on Sept. 25, seven years after the original opened, and every showing came with a sneak peek at Doomsday. IMAX and Infinity Vision screens got a longer look.
GamesRadar, citing the British ratings board, put the regular theatrical cut at 183 minutes and the Infinity Vision cut at about 186. The original Endgame ran 181 minutes, so you’re adding a few minutes to an already long sit.
What’s new in Endgame Encore?
Spoilers for the new scenes ahead. Here’s what theaters showed, per SlashFilm and GamesRadar:
-
An intro from Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr., about one minute long.
-
A new ending: Steve and Peggy’s dance gets interrupted by a knock at the door. It’s Loki, in his TVA outfit, offering to help them both.
-
A post-credits scene: Doctor Doom forging his mask in a cave, set to the same hammering sound as Tony Stark’s Iron Man build.
-
Extra Doomsday material: Some screenings, including Infinity Vision, added Bruce Banner getting a visit from Doom and a TVA scene about colliding Earths.
Whether all of that makes the Disney+ version is the big question. Disney hasn’t said.
How much did Endgame Encore make at the box office?
Enough to rewrite the record books. Encore opened to about $86 million worldwide, the second-biggest global debut ever for a re-release behind Titanic’s 2012 3D return, as we reported in October.
That push moved Endgame to about $2.925 billion worldwide, roughly $2 million ahead of Avatar’s $2.923 billion. James Cameron even congratulated Marvel on Oct. 16. Classy, for a guy who’s lost the crown to Marvel twice now.
When does Avengers: Doomsday come out?
Friday, Dec. 18, in theaters. Robert Downey Jr. is back, this time as Doctor Doom.
If you want to watch the full lead-in at home first, here’s the timeline:
-
Nov. 13: Endgame Encore on Disney+
-
Now: VisionQuest’s finale on Disney+, which ends with Doom and the Scarlet Witch
-
Dec. 18: Avengers: Doomsday in theaters
Marvel hasn’t dated a final Doomsday trailer yet.
How do I watch Endgame Encore on Disney+?
You’ll need a Disney+ subscription. The movie should show up on the app on Nov. 13, likely in the early morning hours, which is when Disney+ usually drops new movies. Disney hasn’t posted an exact time.
The original Avengers: Endgame is already streaming on Disney+, so if your kids want the old cut first, it’s there. Plan for a three-hour movie night either way. Snacks are not optional.
