THE AVENGERS Adds $103 Million To Its Gross From Home Media Sale During First Five Days
This box office juggernaut is not slowing down on home media market either. The Joss Whedon-helmed superhero ensemble The Avengers has made over $100 million on Blu-ray and DVD during its first five days...
Yes, we knew that The Avengers was going to do big business on Blu-ray and DVD. Still, the numbers have arrived, and they are big. The home media market is not what it used to be, though that shouldn't be a problem for Joss Whedon & Marvel's superhero team-up of a lifetime. The Avengers was released on September 25th in US, and during its first five days (Sep. 25 - Sep. 30), the film managed to make around $103 million. Of course, the Blu-ray sale played a major part in this. According to The Numbers, it sold 3,389,726 units which equals to $67.6 million. Plus, it sold 2,086,751 DVD units ($35.4 million).
