In Theatres Nationwide Today, May 1, 2015
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 05/01/15 -- (TSX: CGX) - Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron is already breaking records for Cineplex Entertainment. The highly anticipated film has exceeded $4 million in advance ticket sales, positioning it as the highest-grossing film presale in Cineplex's history.
"We are thrilled that Canadian moviegoers are eager to experience Avengers: Age of Ultron in our theatres," said Pat Marshall, Vice President, Communications, Cineplex Entertainment. "We are confident that this will be one of the most successful films in Cineplex's history and a great kick-off to the blockbuster summer ahead."
Following the success of The Avengers (2012), the film continues Marvel's superhero franchise with the return of fan-favourite characters including Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), The Incredible Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson), and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner). When Tony Stark jumpstarts a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth's Mightiest Heroes are put to the ultimate test as they battle to save the planet from destruction at the hands of the villainous Ultron.
The film surpasses Cineplex's long-standing record holder Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows Pt. 2, followed by The Twilight Saga: New Moon, and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire.
