Avengers: Endgame is about to be dethroned as the highest-grossing film of all time by Avatar!

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterPour one out for the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.“Avengers: Endgame,” the everything-but-the-kitchen-sink Marvel superhero blockbuster, is poised to relinquish its title as the highest-grossing movie in history to “Avatar,” the previous record-holder. Prior to the release of “Endgame” in April 2019, James Cameron’s groundbreaking sci-fi epic held the ultimate box office crown for a decade with $2.7897 billion worldwide.

Well, that didn’t take too long.

Long-rumored for a China re-release, James Cameron’s Avatar suddenly popped onto the calendar this week. The erstwhile highest-grossing film of all time worldwide will hit Middle Kingdom cinemas on Friday, March 12. In so doing, it has a chance to jockey back up to the No. 1 spot globally, after Avengers: Endgame overtook it in summer 2019. There is currently $7.8M separating the two based on trued-up numbers (including re-releases, Avengers: Endgame’s global total is $2,797.5M/Avatar’s is $2,789.7M).
