For the nth time, Avatar: The Way of Water continues to break records. M. Night Shyamalan's Knock at the Cabin might be the top film at the box office last weekend, but Avatar 2 made history not long after.
Technically, Avatar: The Way of Water's global box office take, which now sits at $2.174 billion globally, hasn't surpassed Titanic's yet at $2.2 billion. But, it's only a matter of time. Also, Avatar 2's overseas total, $1.538 billion, is already ahead of the numbers posted by Titanic. It now sits in third place behind Avengers: Endgame ($1.9 billion overseas) and Avatar ($2.1 billion overseas).
Although Titanic will be re-released on February 10, which should add a couple of million to its earnings, Avatar: The Way of Water technically still has at least a few good weekends to establish itself at the No. 3 spot on the global charts.
Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Avatar: The Way of Water will climb further. We're predicting $2.25 billion or maybe $2.3 billion for Avatar 2 when it's all said and done. It's impressive but nowhere near enough for it to top the other two juggernauts ahead of it.
