James Cameron's latest film, Avatar: Fire and Ash, will be available for streaming on Disney+ beginning Wednesday, June 24. This release follows its successful theatrical run, during which it achieved a worldwide box office gross of $1.49 billion. The PG-13 rated film is the third entry in the franchise, which began with the original Avatar in 2009 and was followed by Avatar: The Way of Water in 2022.
The narrative of Avatar: Fire and Ash picks up after significant family loss experienced by Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña). Their grief is compounded by the emergence of a new threat: Varang (Oona Chaplin) and her Ash People, who, alongside Miles Quaritch (Stephen Lang), seek to destroy the Na'vi and Metkayina clans. The film features a star-studded cast including Sigourney Weaver, Kate Winslet, and Edie Falco, among others.
Despite its impressive $1.49 billion global earnings, Avatar: Fire and Ash's box office performance was lower than its predecessors. The original Avatar grossed $2.923 billion worldwide, and Avatar: The Way of Water earned $2.322 billion globally. Avatar: Fire and Ash is currently ranked 16th among the highest-grossing films of all time, while the first Avatar holds the top spot. Disney+ offers various subscription tiers, including ad-based and ad-free options, as well as bundle deals with other streaming services.
