Apparently, there are a lot of Marvel movie fans out there thirsty to get back into theaters, because Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has just broken Fandango’s advanced ticket sales record for 2022. Advanced tickets for Doctor Strange 2 went on sale yesterday, Wednesday, April 6th; in the first 20 hours, Multiverse of Madness managed to sell more tickets than any other film in 2022 (so far) – including DC’s The Batman, which has since grossed $351.8 million at the domestic box office, and $714.5 million, worldwide. With that line of comparison in mind, it feels safe to say that Marvel Studios is likely to have another billion-dollar winner on its hands with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Advance tickets went on sale yesterday for “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness,” opening exclusively in theaters on May 6, and within hours, Fandango saw staggering numbers of fans reserving their seats, showtimes selling out and theater partners posting new showtimes to meet the fan demand.
During its first 24 hours of presales, Fandango sold more tickets for “Doctor Strange 2” than for any other 2022 film so far in their first 24 hours of sales, including the previous leader, “The Batman.”
The first day presales for “Doctor Strange 2” are Fandango’s biggest since “Spider-Man: No Way Home” tickets went on sale on November 29, 2021.
