Can it beat Avatar: Fire and Ash at the domestic box office?
Avatar: Fire and Ash is a sci-fi film directed by James Cameron and the third installment in the Avatar franchise. It is the weakest film in the trilogy, which ended its box-office run a few weeks ago. The James Cameron film grossed just $404.3 million domestically, far less than its predecessors. Released in December 2025, Avatar 3 collected this sum over 119 days at the North American box office.
According to reports, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is tracking to earn between $11 million and $13 million on its 5th three-day weekend in North America. Therefore, its domestic total is expected to reach $402.6 million by this weekend, missing Avatar: Fire and Ash’s domestic haul. But the animated sequel will overtake it in its 5th week. Beating a franchise movie such as Avatar 3 is a significant achievement and might boost its sales as well.
What is the film about?
