WORLD/USA
Avatar: Fire and Ash expected to dominate the year-end box office with a global debut estimated between $340 and $380 million, but lower than the debut of The Way of Water. In the United States, pre-sales are weaker than in the previous chapter, but the initial takings could still exceed 90 million, despite stronger competition. As per tradition for the saga, real success is expected in the long term thanks to the holidays, rather than in the first weekend.
Meanwhile, good news, at least on paper, for the global box office: according to the first projections from Gower Street Analytics, the 2026 global box office should be around $35 billion, marking the second consecutive year of growth and an estimated increase of 5% compared to 2025. It would be the best global result since 2019, although still remaining below the average levels of the pre-pandemic period if recalculated at current exchange rates. The main push is expected from the markets most driven by Hollywood products. In the United States, the domestic market is expected to grow to approximately $9.9 billion, while international — excluding China — is expected to exceed $18 billion, with moderate but steady progress in key geographies. EMEA and Latin America show the most encouraging signs, while Asia-Pacific remains further away from pre-2020 peaks. Above all, the analysts’ optimism is supported by an exceptionally rich release calendar, dominated by new chapters of hugely popular franchises — from Avengers a Star Warspassing through Toy Story, Dune e Super Mario Bros. — flanked by potential original blockbusters and event titles by authors such as Christopher Nolan and Steven Spielberg. A combination that promises a broad and transversal offer, capable of intercepting different audiences.
