Critics Panned It, Fans Love It: 'Avatar: Fire And Ash' Ignites the Box Office
A truly unique record is within reach for visionary James Cameron, as he brings fans another blockbuster hit with 'Avatar: Fire and Ash'. This film has been highly anticipated and promises to deliver spectacular visuals and storytelling.
Avatar: Fire and Ash from James Cameron has begun its international release and premieres tonight in the U.S.
The blockbuster (the 3rd installment in the franchise) is currently tipped for a domestic take of $105 million and another $275 million overseas for a staggering global start of $380 million.
IMAX and 3D theaters are expected to do good business in the coming weeks, as Avatar is known for its long-lasting box office performance. The four teaser trailers announced for Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday will also contribute to the expected success.
Fire and Ash, which runs for a whopping 197 minutes, has a budget of $400 million. It must gross at least $1 billion to break even, and it looks like it will definitely achieve that.
The biggest question is whether it will, like its two predecessors, surpass the $2 billion mark. If that happens, Avatar will become the first franchise in history with three titles reaching this milestone.
