The sci-fi sequel has earned $2.2433 billion worldwide, surpassing "Titanic" ($2.2428 billion) at the box office. "The Way of Water" now ranks third all-time behind "Avatar" ($2.92 billion) and "Avengers: Endgame" ($2.7 billion).

Cameron, the only filmmaker with three films grossing $2 billion or more, directed the first, third, and fourth most successful releases in history.


“Avatar: The Way of Water” was released in six Indian languages: English, Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam, Tamil, and Kannada. The film became the highest-grossing Hollywood film of all time in India after its release on December 16, 2022.
