Avatar - The Way of Water: James Cameron's Sci-Sequel Needs to Make Over $2 Billion Just to Break Even at the Box Office
Avatar: The Way of Water is an upcoming sci-fi film directed by James Cameron starring Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang and more. The film releases in theatres on December 16, 2022.
While the Na'vi's battle with the humans will surely be a huge spectacle, it looks like the biggest battle that Avatar: The Way of Water faces is right at the box office. With director James Cameron himself revealing that the film needs to be the "third or fourth" highest grossing film of all time to just break even at the box office, it looks like the sequel will have to gross more than $2 Billion just to turn in a profit. For comparison, the first Avatar grossed over $2.9 Billion at the box office becoming the highest grossing film of all time. Does the franchise still have that kind of pull? Looks like we will find out in December. Avatar–The Way of Water Trailer: James Cameron’s Film Glimpses Pandora’s Underwater Creatures and It’s a Visual Delight (Watch Video).
