Avatar 3 Weekend Box Office Predictions Revised
Avatar: Fire and Ash, the third movie in James Cameron’s blockbuster series, hits theaters this weekend from December 19 to 21, 2025. Early guesses put its opening weekend at around $92 million in ticket sales across North America. That’s a solid start, but not quite as huge as the first Avatar’s $77 million back in 2009 or the second one’s massive $134 million in 2022, both adjusted for today’s prices.
Why the drop? The movie faces stiff competition right away. Angel Studios is dropping David the same weekend, a faith-based film that could pull in family crowds and split the audience. BoxOfficeReport, a top site for these forecasts, just updated their numbers to $92 million after looking at early ticket sales and buzzhttp://www.boxofficereport.com/predictions/predictions20251218.html. They note the holiday timing might help, with families out for winter break, but superhero fatigue and other big releases earlier this year have cooled things off.
Fans still love the Pandora world, with its stunning visuals and Na’vi action. Previews show strong interest from loyal viewers, and 3D screenings could boost per-ticket prices. If word-of-mouth spreads fast like before, it might climb past $100 million by Sunday night. Analysts watch walk-ups closely, as Avatar films often surprise with last-minute buyers.
Revised predictions now factor in softer tracking data from the past week. Some experts think $85 million to $95 million is safer, depending on Friday turnout. International markets look brighter, with China and Europe ready for another Pandora hit.
