Avatar: The Way Of Water overtakes Spider Man: No Way Home to become the sixth biggest movie of all time

Five weeks after debuting at the box office, Avatar: The Way of Water continues to perform better than director James Cameron ever thought possible. Limit line is reporting that the sequel has surpassed Spider-Man: No Way Home to become the 6th biggest movie ever made worldwide and is expected to hit $2 billion next weekend.

Earlier this week, it was reported that the Avatar sequel grossed $40.6 million in ticket sales during the four-day holiday weekend of Martin Luther King Jr. Combined with the release in international territories, Avatar 2 has earned over $1.93 billion to date. Earlier this month, Avatar: The Way of Water became one of the most successful films in world history–in less than two weeks.
