That day had to come eventually. Following three weeks of uninterrupted domination, US cinemas have found a new king or rather a queen. In its 22nd day since its release, the film Avatar: The Way of Water has, once again, not named the most earning movie among productions released in American theaters.
As reported by Mojo Box Office, the premiere of the film M3GAN took place exactly yesterday. Despite the fact that Gerard Johnstone’s masterpiece won’t be remembered as one of the most profitable films in history, nevertheless it was the item that managed to earn more yesterday than Avatar: The Way of Water.
M3GAN generated $11.7 million on U.S. soil. In contrast, James Cameron’s masterpiece earned yesterday (in U.S. theaters) $11.4 million.
Total M3GAN revenue from worldwide theaters is now $15 million. The new Avatar, in turn, already hit $1.56 billion. It’s possible that Avatar: The Way of Water will jump to the top again tomorrow, but the unbroken streak has just been broken.
