However, while The Avengers is part of the elusive billion-dollar club, Justice League is a long way off ever reaching that target.
The Avengers is still the fifth biggest movie of all time, whereas Justice League now sits below all other DC cinematic universe films commercially.
Effectively, the DC version of The Avengers, there is a definite sense of irony that Whedon had a hand in both movies.
According to Box Office Mojo, Justice League is the lowest grossing DCEU movie after just wrapping its box office run in the U.S. Admittedly, there are only five movies in the franchise so far, but considering that the fledgling Man of Steel netted $291 million, Justice League‘s $229 million total is a disappointment.
