Avatar: Fire and Ash Crosses $1 Billion Worldwide After Strong Third Weekend

The milestone underscores James Cameron’s four‑film billion‑dollar streak, sharpening studio focus on whether the saga continues.

Overview

  • Disney and 20th Century Studios report roughly $1.083 billion globally, with about $306 million domestic and $777.1 million international.
  • The film stayed No. 1 in North America for a third weekend, adding about $40 million, according to Box Office Mojo.
  • Premium formats such as IMAX and 3D and sustained overseas turnout, notably in China (around $138 million) and France (about $81 million), are driving totals.
  • Cameron has linked future installments to the business case and has voiced uncertainty about directing more, while James Wan said he would consider stepping in if asked.
  • Fire and Ash joins Zootopia 2 and Lilo & Stitch as 2025 releases that surpassed $1 billion, bolstering Disney’s box-office slate.
