James Cameron’s Avatar 2 has closed its opening weekend at the worldwide box office on a superb note. It has managed to rake in the third biggest global opening in the post-pandemic era after Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Let’s take a look at how much it has earned!
For the unversed, high expectations have been pinned on Avatar: The Way Of Water considering part 1’s staggering success. However, the film opened a bit lower than expected at the North American box office. Still, it’s considered to be very good as not many films have been able to create rage in the post-pandemic era. The good thing is, that word-of-mouth is highly positive.
