|December 23, 2025
DIRECTOR James Cameron's third Avatar movie kicked off its box office run with roughly $345 million in global ticket sales through Sunday, meeting pre-weekend forecasts for the epic movie franchise from Walt Disney.
-
Avatar: Fire and Ash ranked as the second-highest Hollywood movie debut for 2025, behind only the $556 million for Disney's Zootopia 2 in November.
The movie topped box office charts in the United States and Canada, where it brought in $88 million of its worldwide total, according to Disney estimates. Fire and Ash continues the story of the nine-foot-tall blue Na’vi people on a lush planet named Pandora.
The domestic total came in 35% lower than 2022’s Avatar: The Way of Water, the sequel released 13 years after the first film enchanted audiences with stunning visual effects.
