Avatar: The Way of Water Box Office Collection: James Cameron’s film, Avatar: The Way of Water, continues to dominate worldwide box office collections. Moreover, the sequel is an inch away to cross Marvel’s Spider-Man: No Way Home box office collection. The most awaited sequel has recently achieved a new milestone. Avatar 2 has grossed $1.8B globally and reached nearly $1.9B at the worldwide box office through this weekend, as reported by Deadline.
Despite the huge numbers, Avatar 2 ranks as the number 7 biggest movie of all time (or highest-grossing movie). Just ahead of it at number 6 is Spider-Man: No Way Home with $1.921B. However, it is expected that Avatar 2 will take over Tom Holland’s latest Spider-Man film early this week. The 20th Century Studios sequel had a great New Year’s weekend. Meanwhile, the film has added $88.6M at the international box office this weekend, bringing its numbers total to $1.331B.
However, Avatar 2 remains the number five biggest overseas release ever, left behind, Avatar, Avengers: Endgame, Titanic and Avengers: Infinity War. The sequel has already beaten Infinity War, whose worldwide collection was $1.37 Billion, to jump up a notch on the international chart. Additionally, Avatar: The Way Of Water is already the top release Internationally during the pandemic era.
Apart from the film’s achievements at the box office, the sequel is also doing great at award ceremonies. Recently, Avatar: The Way of Water bagged Critics’ Choice Awards for Best Visual Effects. For the unversed, Avatar: The Way Of Water follows Jake Sully and Ney’tiri as they have formed a family and are doing everything to stay together. However, they must leave their home and explore the regions of Pandora. When an ancient threat resurfaces, Jake must fight a difficult war against the humans.
The film is still running in theatres and it doesn’t seem like fans can watch the sequel on the Ott platform anytime soon. James Cameron’s latest movie Avatar: The Way of Water features, Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Stephen Lang, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Giovanni Ribisi, Dileep Rao, and Matt Gerald reprising their roles from the original film, with Sigourney Weaver returning in a different role.
