After passing “Avengers: Infinity War” at the global box office on Thursday, Disney/20th Century’s “Avatar: The Way of Water” will pass “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” for the No. 4 spot on the all-time box office list before inflation adjustment.
After its seventh Friday in theaters, “Avatar 2” has totals of $608 million domestic and $2.074 billion worldwide, topping the $2.071 billion that “The Force Awakens” earned during the winter of 2015. Its next target is another film from James Cameron, “Titanic,” which has a lifetime gross total of $2.19 billion.
On the domestic charts, industry estimates have “Avatar 2” adding $15 million this weekend, which would bring its North American cume to $620 million.
