Part 6/9:
Avatar: Fire and Ash is projected to be a massive hit, with early estimates predicting it could gross between $1.5 billion to $2 billion globally. Its predecessor, despite a decline compared to the original, still achieved historical box office records, and expectations are high for this sequel to perform similarly or better.
However, some analysts observe a troubling trend: a decline in franchise attendance and revenue over the years, which makes the film’s commercial success particularly significant. The amount it needs to earn to justify a chain of sequels is still a point of discussion, emphasizing that commercial viability remains central in decision-making on future installments.
