After repeated delays in the expected release schedule, Avatar: The Way of Water premiered in London on December 6, 2022, and was theatrically released in the United States on December 16, 2022.
The film was a major box office success, breaking multiple records, and grossing about $2.303 billion worldwide, making it the highest-grossing film of 2022, the highest-grossing film of the COVID-19 pandemic era, the third-highest-grossing film of all time and 3D sales make up over $1 Billion of Box Office revenue.
Shooting a 3D film adds an obvious expense to a film's production and given the high-scale, effects-driven nature of Avatar: The Way of Water, much talk was made prior to the film's release about whether the film would be able to break even at the box office, let alone turn a profit, thanks to its enormous budget. Several weeks into the film's box office run and the results speak for themselves and the large proportion of 3D ticket sales prove that the extra investment was worth it.
Avatar: The Way of Water looks set to have ensured the 3D cinema experience shall endure a little while longer.
