Los Angeles, September 25 - Filmmaker James Cameron's Avatar re-release brings a sweet surprise at the box office as it has become the biggest opener ever in Hollywood history for a re-release movie. The 4K remastered version of this 2009 sci-fi blockbuster was re-released in North America and internationally on September 23.

At the domestic (North America) box office, the movie was released in 1860 theaters and grossed a strong $3.3 million on Friday, which is the highest opening ever for a re-release in North America, beating "Avengers: Endgame's" 1.9 million from 2025 theatres. "Avatar" is eyeing $10M-$13M in the opening weekend, according to trade expert Luiz Fernando.



Meanwhile, at the overseas box office, "Avatar" rerelease has grossed $7.7 million after grossing $4.2 million on Friday. The total worldwide collection of the film's rerelease stands at $11 million, which is already more than "Spider-Man: No Way Home's" release so far.

The positive response to the "Avatar" rerelease is good news (if needed) for its sequel, titled Avatar: The Way of Water which is scheduled to release in December this year. It will be released in over 160 languages worldwide in multiple formats, including IMAX, and PLF.
