As someone who grew up in the era of blockbuster movies and spent countless hours at the local cinema, I can confidently say that the release of Avatar 3 in 2025 is a moment I’ve been eagerly anticipating for years. The original Avatar movie left an indelible mark on my childhood, with its groundbreaking visual effects and immersive storytelling capturing my imagination like no other film before it.

In the decades since its release, James Cameron has proven time and again that he is a master of the big screen, pushing the boundaries of technology and storytelling to new heights. From Titanic to Avatar: The Way of Water, his films have consistently delivered breathtaking visuals and unforgettable characters that resonate with audiences worldwide.

With Avatar 3, I firmly believe that Cameron will once again deliver a cinematic experience like no other, one that will leave viewers spellbound and eagerly awaiting the next installment. The fact that it is set to be released at the end of 2025, during what appears to be a crowded box office calendar, only adds to my excitement.

I’m calling it now: Avatar 3 will not only be the biggest movie of 2025 but also one of the biggest movies of all time. If you dare to doubt its success, I’d invite you to join me for a trip to Pandora and experience the magic for yourself. And who knows? Maybe we’ll even bump into Sigourney Weaver along the way!

Joke: I hear they’re making a sequel to The Room. It’s called “The Closet.” You know, because there are so many secrets hidden within it… and it’s always dark in there.

In 2025, the reigning champion of the box office makes a comeback: Avatar 3 will be released, and much like its previous installments, it’s poised to debunk the skeptics and rake in billions of dollars.

2024 saw sequels dominating the box office, with only two films – Inside Out 2 and Deadpool & Wolverine – surpassing the billion-dollar mark. You have to go as far down as 15th place (It Ends with Us: $350m) before finding a movie that isn’t a sequel or follow-up of some kind. Even Wicked, though technically a prequel to The Wizard of Oz, still falls into this category.

2025 looks promising with a lineup of highly anticipated sequels such as Captain America: A New Era, Mission Impossible: Last Call, 28 Years On, Wicked Untold, Mortal Kombat II, and The Accountant Returns (though it might only excite me personally).

Yet, everyone will undoubtedly yield to the power of James Cameron, as he once again graces the silver screen with Avatar: Fire and Ash. I have no doubt that this film will be the standout movie of the year, without a shadow of a doubt.

Avatar 3 is destined to be the biggest movie of 2025 

Avatar: Fire and Ash hits cinemas on December 19, 2025. If you look at the theatrical calendar, it’s clear as day that other studios are terrified to compete; you’ve got Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 on December 5, and The SpongeBob Movie: Search for Squarepants is dropping on the same day as Avatar. 

Prior to that, Zootopia 2 hits theaters on November 26th. This movie will have a head start of around three weeks at the box office before the release of Avatar 3.

Let me make this clear: If you’re among those who deny that Avatar has had any cultural influence or question the success of Avatar 3 at the box office, it might be time for a mature reflection. Chances are, you exhibit similar skepticism in other areas as well, and this could be an opportunity to reconsider your stance.

The initial Avatar film remains the highest-earning movie ever, having grossed a staggering $2.924 billion. It’s expected to surpass the $3 billion mark with a re-release prior to Fire and Ash. So far, it has successfully outmaneuvered Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($2.059 billion), Avengers: Infinity War ($2.048 billion), and Spider-Man: No Way Home ($1.909 billion).

Avengers: Endgame briefly surpassed Avatar as the highest-grossing film ($2.748bn) ever made, but its reign was short-lived. Disney re-released Avatar in theaters for a few weeks, and once again, it claimed the number one spot on the box office charts. If anyone doubts the enduring love for Avatar, they are mistaken.

In addition, the sequel to Avatar, titled “Avatar: The Way of Water,” was released in 2022, marking 13 years since the initial film. This blockbuster movie raked in a staggering $2.318 billion globally, placing it third on the list of highest-grossing films in history. With Titanic also among his creations, James Cameron has contributed to the production of three of the largest movies ever produced.

I’m optimistic that next year will bring a host of successful films; however, the Minecraft movie has the potential to truly shine among them. The future success of Marvel Cinematic Universe releases remains uncertain, as they often do, and if Jurassic World: Rebirth manages to match the earnings of Dominion (a film I personally found less than impressive), it will undoubtedly join the elite billion-dollar club.

As a long-time movie enthusiast and someone who has seen countless blockbusters throughout my years, I can confidently say that only one film stands a chance of grossing $2 billion at the box office – Avatar: Fire and Ash. I’ve been following the industry closely, and I can tell you that this isn’t an opinion based on hype or speculation. It’s backed by data and the proven track record of the creators involved.

To those who doubt its potential, I say, “If you can’t get out of it, get into it.” Don’t dismiss it without giving it a chance. The original Avatar film was groundbreaking in terms of visual effects, storytelling, and world-building, and I have no doubt that this sequel will continue to push the boundaries of what cinema is capable of achieving.

So, naysayers, accept defeat now – or better yet, embrace the opportunity to witness cinematic history being made once again with Avatar: Fire and Ash.
