Days ahead of its opening, the film was much ahead of Marvel's previous releases - 'Ant-Man and the Wasp' and 'Venom' - in terms of advance ticket booking sales on Atom Tickets

'Captain Marvel', the first female superhero film of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, is all set to release worldwide on March 8, and to say that expectation among fans is high, would be an understatement.

Starring Brie Larson, Samuel L Jackson, and Jude Law, the film will also hint at the conclusion to the biggest superhero movies out there - 'Avengers: Endgame.'  

Because of the ensuing buzz, the film is expected to make an $150 million opening in USA-Canada and $350 million opening worldwide. Three days before its opening, the film was much ahead of Marvel's previous releases - 'Ant-Man and the Wasp' and 'Venom' - in terms of advance ticket booking sales on Atom Tickets.
