James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water has crossed the $1 billion mark at the global box office within 14 days of its release. It has now become the fastest movie this year to hit the milestone within such a short span, and the 6th fastest film ever to arrive at that mark, along with Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, which also hit $1 billion in 2018 within 14 days.

Currently the James Cameron film is the third highest-grossing film released during the pandemic era, having taken over the numbers that Doctor Strange And The Multiverse of Madness collected, and it is all set to cross the collection of Jurassic World: Dominion to aim for the 2nd position. The first position is held by Spider-Man: No Way Home, which is still the highest-grossing film of the pandemic era at $1.91 billion. Avatar: The Way of Water is also the fastest to cross the $1 billion mark since Spider-Man: No Way Home, which took 12 days. The original Avatar, which was released in 2009 still maintains the position as the highest-grossing film of all time with a worldwide collection of $2.97 billion.
