Avatar: The Way of Water Brings in Biggest Tuesday Box Office Numbers for 2022
Though things got off to a bit of an uncertain start, Avatar: The Way of Water is gaining momentum at the box office! At the start of the week, we here at MickeyBlog reported that the much-anticipated sequel failed to hit original box office projections.
However, with positive reviews and word-of-mouth, the tables are turning. According to a piece in DEADLINE, The Way of Water earned $18.3 million at the domestic box office making it the best Tuesday of 2022. This means that to date, James Cameron’s sequel has earned $168.6 million at the domestic box office. Overseas the film earned $387.3 million making the worldwide gross $555.9 million.
The success of Avatar: The Way of Water also spells good news for the Walt Disney Company. The film’s performance at the box office helped Disney earn more than $4 billion worldwide at the box office this year. DEADLINE points out that this is the most to date for any studio.
Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana and Sigourney Weaver return for The Way of Water. They are joined by Kate Winslet and Stephen Lang . The sequel follows Jake (Worthington) and Neytiri (Saldana) as trouble follows their family. What lengths will they go to in order to keep their family safe?
