"Avatar: Fire and Ash," directed by James Cameron, has skyrocketed to success, surpassing $1 billion in global ticket sales shortly after its release, becoming Cameron's fourth film to achieve this milestone.
The film reigned supreme at the North American box office for three consecutive weeks, earning a robust $40 million during its third weekend of release.
With an impressive $777.1 million generated internationally, "Fire and Ash" demonstrates a remarkable demand among global audiences, showcasing the enduring appeal of the "Avatar" franchise.
The film has made headlines by overtaking iconic sequels like "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" at the domestic box office, securing its place among cinematic legends.
While the box office triumph brings renewed hope for Hollywood after a sluggish 2025, critical responses vary, with some commentators questioning the franchise's innovation and labeling it a “banal spectacle.”
The soundtrack features contributions from Miley Cyrus, who shared her creative journey and struggles in crafting songs that resonate with the film's epic narrative.
