Avatar: The Way of Water has crossed the lifetime collections of Star Wars: The Force Awakens to emerge as the fourth highest-grossing film of all time. The James Cameron-directed visual epic has so far collected USD 2.075 billion worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo. The Force Awakens, which released in theatres in 2015, raked in USD 2.071 billion during its theatrical run.
Cameron’s 2009 blockbuster Avatar is still the top-grossing film of all time with a collection of USD 2.91 billion, followed by Avengers: Endgame (2019) at USD 2.79 billion. Titanic (1997), which is also directed by James Cameron, currently holds the third place with USD 2.19 billion in earnings.
With The Way of Water’s recent box office milestone, Cameron now has three of the top four highest-grossing films of all time. The Way of Water recently surpassed the collections of Spider-Man: No Way Home (USD 1.92 billion) and Avengers: Infinity War (USD 2.05 billion) to move up the charts.
Starring Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, and Kate Winslet, Avatar: The Way of Water tells the story of Jake Sully and his Na’vi family more than a decade after the events of the first film in the franchise.
