Avatar: Fire and Ash, James Cameron‘s epic sci-fi threequel, was released in theaters on December 19, 2025. The film received a relatively modest 66% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes, especially when compared to its predecessors. At the box office, the third installment of the Avatar franchise grossed an impressive $1.486 billion worldwide, as per Box Office Mojo. The combined gross of the Avatar franchise now stands at around a staggering $6.56 billion globally.
Avatar Franchise – Earnings Gap
Although the average worldwide gross per film in the Avatar trilogy exceeds $2 billion, the third film earned roughly 46% less than the original Avatar and around 36% less than Avatar: The Way of Water. The significant gap is particularly striking compared to the first film, especially given the estimated rise in ticket prices between 2009 and 2025.
Despite the franchise’s box office dominance, fans are still speculating about whether Avatar 4 and Avatar 5 will ultimately move forward. According to a recent report by The Wrap, discussions are underway about how to make the next installments cheaper and shorter than the first three films. That said, Disney has apparently yet to make a final call and seems to be weighing in on the franchise’s future. This brings us to a crucial question: What could be the ideal budget range for Avatar 4 and Avatar 5 if they are officially greenlit?
