James Cameron’s avatar, due to its relaunch in China, is now bigger than Avengers: Endgame in terms of box office revenue globally. According to the deadline, the current total of the science fiction epic now amounts to $ 2.802 billion, thus exceeding the $ 2.797 billion of Endgame.
Interestingly, Zoe Saldana was part of both films and played alien characters in both. In Endgame, she played the role of Gamora, and in Avatar she was the main role of the woman and played a princess Na’vi Neytiri.
The official Marvel Studios account, the directors of MCU, Russo Brothers and James Gunn, congratulated Cameron for the feat. Of course, he congratulates Disney because he owns both properties. Disney took possession of the Avatar franchise after the recent acquisition of 21st Century Fox, now called Fox Corporation.

“Putting the glove back on you … @JimCameron,” Joe and Anthony Russo wrote on Twitter as they shared the art of Boss Logic.
Gunn, best known for the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, wrote on Twitter: Congratulations to James Cameron and the #Avatar team! (And of course @zoesaldana, who is in a kind of loss situation here). ”
Avatar was released in 2009 for a captivating reception from both critics and the public. The film quickly became the largest grossing film ever made, further establishing Cameron as the most bankable director in Hollywood, at least in terms of monetary profitability. His romantic epic-disaster Titanic also broke several box office records, as did his earlier Terminator movies.
Endgame, which came out in 2019, had Avengers, or what was left of them, coming together to eliminate the threat of Thanos for the last time, as well as to bring back their dead comrades.
