How Avatar: Fire and Ash Worldwide Collection Ranks
The film just passed some major titles. The Avatar: Fire and Ash worldwide collection of $1.38 billion puts it ahead of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Black Panther, and Deadpool & Wolverine.
In North America, it’s less than $10 million away from beating The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King ($386.9 million). The film should finish its run around $400-410 million domestically.
James Cameron Makes History Again
With the Avatar: Fire and Ash worldwide collection hitting $1.38 billion, Cameron became the first director ever to have four films in a row cross $1 billion. That’s Titanic, Avatar, The Way of Water, and now Fire and Ash.
Why Some Call It an “Underperformer”
Here’s the weird part. Despite the massive Avatar: Fire and Ash worldwide collection numbers, some analysts call it a disappointment. Why? The Way of Water made $1.7 billion by this same point in its run.
Plus, Disney’s Zootopia 2 crushed the holiday box office with over $1.65 billion. That took screens and attention away from Avatar.

What’s Next for Avatar: Fire and Ash Worldwide Collection
The Avatar: Fire and Ash worldwide collection will probably end around $1.5-1.6 billion total. That’s still huge by normal standards. It’s just not Avatar-level huge compared to the previous films.
For any other franchise, $1.38 billion would be a massive win. The Avatar: Fire and Ash worldwide collection proves Cameron still knows how to make money.
