Avatar: The Way of Water is winning over cinephiles with its immersive visual effects. The film is being enjoyed on IMAX screens and the audience is willing to pay a higher ticket price for the stunning silver screen experience. Rich Gelfond, CEO of Imax, is elated with the film’s performance globally. He told Variety, “In just over a week of release, Avatar: The Way of Water has sailed to more than $100 million in Imax box office with no signs of slowing down.”

However, given the drop in temperature across the globe and the fear of coronavirus looming over the world once again, it might be a tough road for the film to replace its predecessor, Avatar, as the highest-grossing film ever. The movie had accumulated 2.97 billion dollars upon its release in 2009.

Written by James Cameron along with Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, Avatar: The Way of Water has Jake Sully and Neytiri protecting their children from ‘sky people’. To avoid any harm to the family, Jake finds refuge in a semiaquatic Na’vi clan called the Metkayina and learns ways of water to survive.
