Avatar 3 aims to become end-of-year blockbuster
According to reports, ‘Avatar’ is set to re-release three months before the release of its anticipated sequel ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’.
According to a report of The Hollywood Reporter, Comscore box office analyst Paul Dergarabedian says that playing the original film will help provide a marketing tailwind ahead of the sequel. Dergarabedian says, “Disney sees a benefit in re-releasing the movie as a reminder to fans in North America, most of whom have not seen the all-time global box office champ since its special-edition release almost 12 years ago.”
Avatar (2009) became the highest-grossing movie in history at the worldwide box office, with a collection of $2.84 billion at the cinemas.
