Avatar 3, titled Fire and Ash, hits theaters this weekend with big expectations at the box office. Early predictions show it opening strong with around $92 million over the December 19 to 21 period.http://www.boxofficereport.com/predictions/predictions20251218.html
Fans of James Cameron’s blue alien world have waited years for this third movie. It picks up the story on Pandora with new adventures and stunning visuals that past Avatar films are known for. Box office experts at BoxOfficeReport expect Fire and Ash to lead the pack this weekend.http://www.boxofficereport.com/predictions/predictions20251218.html That $92 million guess comes from strong pre-sales and hype built from the first two hits, which together made billions worldwide.
But Avatar 3 won’t have the weekend all to itself. A new film called David from Angel Studios arrives at the same time. Angel Studios focuses on faith-based stories, and David might draw crowds looking for something different. No exact numbers yet for David, but it adds some competition in a busy holiday season when families head to theaters.
Holdover movies from last week could also grab some cash. Recent releases often stick around during December, sharing screens and dollars with the new big guy. Avatar’s past power suggests Fire and Ash will top the charts, but David’s fresh appeal might surprise in certain markets.
Theater owners are excited. IMAX and 3D formats, where Avatar shines, should boost ticket sales. Early buzz online points to packed showings Friday night through Sunday.
