‘Avatar: The Way Of Water’ has passed $600M Global Box Office

James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water has surpassed the $600M mark globally thanks to solid and consistent mid-week performance. After its $441.6M opening weekend, it quickly surpassed $500M globally earlier this week. The current global total, which includes $426.8 million from foreign box offices, is $609.7 million as of Wednesday.

Way of Water now ranks No. 5 for a Hollywood film on the 2022 foreign ranking, surpassing Thor: Love and Thunder and The Batman thanks to the offshore cume.

The 20th Century Studios/Disney sequel garnered $40.5M from foreign markets on Tuesday, and another $39.5M on Wednesday.

According to deadline, Way of Water had the second-best Wednesday domestically in 2022.

When unstable China is excluded, the average landing rate for international midweeks increases to 17% of the opening weekend. When examining markets that began trading early last week, Wednesday in France was up 64% this week. Wednesday in Germany was similarly up, while Wednesday in Korea and Italy was down approximately 30%.

China ($70.5M), France ($37M), Korea ($32.1M), India ($26.5M), Germany ($26.1M), UK ($21.6M), Mexico ($19.4M), Australia ($15.8M), Italy ($13.8M), and Brazil ($12.9M) round out the Top 10 international markets as of Wednesday.

The sum up to this point in the former is increased by an estimated $3.8M to total $74.5M. A $2.17M estimate from Thursday raises Way of Water to $34.7M in the latter case.
