Overview
- Variety reports a global cume above $760 million after the second weekend, with a light 25% dip across overseas markets.
- The film has earned $217 million in North America and $542 million internationally, led by China ($99.6M), France ($54.4M), Germany ($43.1M) and South Korea ($32.1M).
- Holiday momentum lifted the movie from roughly $544 million worldwide in its first week, reflecting stronger holds than early projections suggested.
- James Cameron says he will reveal his planned story for parts 4 and 5 in a press conference if they do not proceed, and he is interested in novelizing the saga to preserve the canon.
- Avatar 4 (2029) and Avatar 5 (2031) have tentative dates and some footage for 4 was already shot, but continuation remains contingent on the threequel’s box-office performance as reviews trend softer than prior entries (about 66% on Rotten Tomatoes and 62 on Metacritic).
