It’s learned that Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker tickets are outselling The Avengers: Endgame in its first hour of presales.

The info comes from Atom Tickets, which isn’t as big as Fandango, and we can probably add wasn’t as popular or used by as many people back when The Avengers: Endgame was released, so bear that in mind, but at least it hints that things are healthy for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

According to Atom, they sold 45% more Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker tickets during its first hour than Avengers: Endgame did during its first hour earlier this year.

The company also notes this is a new record for Atom Tickets and also that Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is the most anticipated fall release.

Tickets went on sale a couple of hours ago, which preceded the release of the new trailer.

The Avengers: Endgame went on to haul in a record $357.1 million for its open weekend in the U.S., so it will be interesting to see how well The Rise of Skywalker does; back in 2015, Abrams’ The Force Awakens brought in nearly $250 million, with The Last Jedi bringing in only $220 million.

Watch the new trailer:

Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker gets released December 20, 2019 directed by J.J. Abrams and stars Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Anthony Daniels, Naomi Ackie, Domhnall Gleeson, Richard E. Grant, Lupita Nyong’o, Keri Russell, Joonas Suotamo, Kelly Marie Tran, and Billy Dee Williams.

Synopsis:

Lucasfilm and director J.J. Abrams join forces once again to take viewers on an epic journey to a galaxy far, far away with Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the riveting conclusion of the seminal Skywalker saga, where new legends will be born and the final battle for freedom is yet to come.
