Fire and Cenere dominates the US box office on its debut weekend

The return to Pandora immediately translates into impressive numbers. Avatar: Fire and Ashthe third episode of the science fiction saga created by James Cameron and produced by Disney, debuted on Friday with a gross of 36.5 million dollars in over 3,800 US theaters. According to Variety estimates will lead to a total between 85 and 90 million on the domestic market, while worldwide it could reach 365 million dollars by Sunday

The better result than the first Avatarbut less than The way of water. A comparison that must be read in light of the extraordinary long-term stability of the previous chapters, both capable of exceeding two billion dollars in total. If too Fire and Ash follows a similar path, the series could become the first in the history of cinema to boast three titles beyond that threshold. In Italy the partial box office is already close to 5 million euros.
