‘Avatar: Fire and Ash’ Crosses $400 Million Worldwide as Cameron Tempers Sequel Plans

The early box-office surge faces a high profitability bar given the film’s steep budget.

Overview

  • Industry trackers report a $347.3 million global opening weekend, driven by strong premium-format turnout.
  • Box Office Mojo data shows a $13.3 million first Monday in North America, pushing the domestic total past $100 million (about $102.5 million after Day 4).
  • In India, Sacnilk estimates indicate a sharp Monday dip to roughly Rs 8.50 crore followed by a Tuesday uptick to Rs 9.25 crore, for a five-day net near Rs 85.50 crore as Dhurandhar remains competitive.
  • Collider reports the global cume surpassed $400 million within the first week, after hitting about $398.7 million through Day 4.
  • James Cameron says future installments must prove their business case, with parts 4 and 5 planned for 2029 and 2031 but tied to Fire and Ash’s financial performance and cost controls.
