Wade Holden -- an entertainment-industry forecaster at Kagan, S&P Global Market Intelligence -- now expects the superhero movie to eclipse 2009’s “Avatar” as the highest-grossing film of all time. That means “Endgame” would have to generate at least another $1 billion in box-office revenue globally in the coming weeks.
