2009's "Avatar" Tops "Avengers: Endgame" as Highest Grossing Film of All Time
Avatar Overtakes Avengers: Endgame to Once Again become the Top-Grossing Movie of All Time
by Lauren Huff March 13, 2021 The Na'vi are victorious once again. In the battle for global box office records, James Cameron's Avatar surpassed Avengers: Endgame over the weekend to reclaim its place as the highest-grossing film of all time. Avatar, which was re-released in China over the weekend, previously held the record until Endgame dethroned it in 2019. The 2009 film's total gross now stands at an estimated $2.802 billion, with the Avengers pic at $2.797 billion. (Both films, incidentally, are owned by Disney.) "We are proud to reach this great milestone, but Jim [Cameron] and I are most thrilled that the film is back in theaters during these unprecedented times, and we want to thank our Chinese fans for their support," Avatar producer Jon Landau said in a statement. "We are hard at work on the next Avatar films and look forward to sharing the continuation of this epic story for years to come." Marvel Studios also congratulated Cameron, Landau, and Avatar in a tweet, writing, "Congratulations to @JimCameron, @JonLandau, and ALL of Na'vi Nation for reclaiming the box office crown! We love you 3000." https://ew.com/movies/avatar-overtak...ovie-all-time/ |
