Avengers Endgame: Encore is now streaming exclusively on Disney+, bringing an updated cut of Marvel Studios’ 2019 film to home viewers with new scenes and fresh color grading. The version runs about four minutes longer than the original release, a small but deliberate change for a movie that already ended one chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The timing matters because the cut has just moved from a limited theatrical run into streaming, after opening in theaters on September 25, 2026. That re-release finished first globally and pulled in an estimated $86 million worldwide in its opening weekend, showing there was still real demand for another look at the film that sent Scott Lang back into the center of the story and gave him a new chance to prove himself as Ant-Man.
For viewers who know the 2019 release, the point is not that Marvel Studios has made a different movie from scratch. It has returned to the same final battle against Thanos and added material that changes how the ending feels, while also altering the color grading. That makes Avengers Endgame: Encore less a sequel than a revised cut, one meant to sit beside the original rather than replace it.
The unresolved part is what those new scenes actually contain. The added material is said to link to Marvel Studios’ Avengers: Doomsday, but the exact connection has not been laid out. For now, Disney+ subscribers can watch the longer version and decide whether the extra four minutes deepen the ending or simply point the franchise toward what comes next.
