Endgame‘s global box office total stands at $2,797,501,328, but according to Deadline, a re-release of Avatar has grossed $8.9 million in China as of Saturday, taking Cameron’s movie back over the top with $2,798,579,794.
But as of the time of this post, Sunday morning, March 14th, 2021, there have been some new developments, as Disney has come out to announce that there have been some changes in gross following their Saturday update which confirmed that at that time they had $8.9 million in the new update, within the first two days of the movie’s re-release in China, it has garnered so far a total of estimated RMB 80M ($12.3M).
Disney now puts Avatar’s worldwide gross at an estimated $2.802B versus Endgame’s $2.797B. Avatar, which now falls under the Disney umbrella after the Fox acquisition, first became the top-selling global release of all time in 2010 when it passed Cameron’s own 1997 Titanic. In July 2019, Endgame overtook Avatar — and now the latter is back on top.
Both movies still belong to Disney, so whichever way, whoever wins or loses, Disney still wins in all.
