Notes

  • This film was announced during Marvel Studios' event at El Capitan Theatre on October 28, 2014.[4]
  • Although Avengers: Infinity War - Part I was this film's original title, the Russo brothers subsequently confirmed that this film and Part II would be retitled to emphasize the differences between the two films.[44] The first part became simply Avengers: Infinity War, while the second part has yet to be retitled.[45]
  • Filming for this film and Avengers: Endgame started on January 23, 2017, and wrapped on July 14, 2017 for the former.[46][47]
  • About two months before this film was set to release, its American premiere date was moved up one week, from May 4 to April 27, coinciding with its worldwide release.[48]
  • For this film, Black Order member Black Dwarf was adapted with the name "Cull Obsidian." In the comics, "Cull Obsidian" is an alternative name for the Black Order.
  • The official poster for this film contains two visual errors in it. The first is Thor's scar being over the wrong eye (left instead of right), and the second is Bucky's bionic arm not being fully transposed over his left arm (on the wrist).
  • This film broke both the domestic opening weekend box office record and worldwide opening record with a $250 million domestic gross and $630 million worldwide, beating the records set by Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($247.9 million) and Fate of the Furious ($541.9 million), respectively.[49]
    • Additionally, this film broke the record for the fastest time a film managed to reach $1 billion at the worldwide box office, on its 11th day of release, again beating Star Wars: The Force Awakens which did so on its 12th day.[50]
  • This film became the 4th film in history to earn $2 billion in its worldwide box office gross, alongside Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Titanic, and Avatar.[51]
  • With a worldwide total box office gross of $2 billion, this film became the highest-grossing film of 2018,[52] and at its peak the 4th-highest-grossing film of all time.[53]

Trivia

  • The release date of this film was around the time of the 10th Anniversary of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which first appeared in Iron Man.
  • An initial draft for this film included a reunion between Iron Man and Captain America. According to co-writer Stephen McFeely, the scene was scrapped because it meant slowing down the aspect of Thanos from the film.[54]
  • An early draft for this film had Falcon go to space instead of Spider-Man.[54]
  • In this film's French dub, Tony Stark insults Ebony Maw by calling him Voldemort, instead of Squidward.[55]
  • The original script for this film had Star-Lord fail to bring himself to try to kill Gamora. The scene was revisited after receiving input from Chris Pratt and James Gunn.[56]
  • Drax's line asking "Why is Gamora?" during the stand-off between Iron Man and Star-Lord was brought up by Dave Bautista himself.[54]
  • According to James Gunn, Groot's final words before dying meant "Dad."[57] Co-director Anthony Russo has confirmed the script did include what Groot's final words meant.[58]
  • The final moments of Spider-Man's death scene were improvised by Tom Holland, namely the repeated blubbering of the line "I don't want to go."[59]
  • The Russo Brothers confirmed that characters like Betty Ross and Lady Sif died off-screen due to Thanos' finger snap, while others such as Howard the Duck, Aunt May and Nakia survived. They refused to confirm the status of some characters because the information was deemed to be "too spoilery." These characters include Jane Foster, Ned Leeds, Shuri, Korg and Miek.[60]
  • The Russo Brothers wanted Steve Rogers' phone number (678-136-7092) to work in real life and redirect to a fake voicemail from the character. They couldn't do it because of the intervention of the film's affiliated legal department.[58]
  • In an earlier draft for this film and its sequel, Thanos snapping his fingers didn't happen until the second film. This was changed because "it would feel more like a cliffhanger than we intended" according to co-writer Christopher Markus.[61]
