Avatar: The Way of Water is the box office king for a third straight week, and shows no sign of slowing down. James Cameron’s long-awaited sequel to the first Avatar film brought in an estimated $63 million over the holiday weekend, roughly the same as the previous week, and now has made more than $400 million domestically and more than $1.3 billion globally. The Way of Water is already the 15th highest global release ever, just behind the first Black Panther.
Numbers released Sunday by Comscore showed Avatar far ahead of the runner-up, Universal’s Shrek spinoff Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, which made an estimated $16 million, and Disney’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which brought in around $4.8 million.
