fo James Cameron’s film Avatar: The Way of Water has outperformed Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam at the box office. The American sci-fi movie has surpassed the success of its predecessor and is the highest-grossing movie of the post-Covid period.

The sequel to the 2009 film Avatar, which starred Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana, is titled Avatar 2. Along with brand-new stars like Kate Winslet, Cliff Curtis, Edie Falco, and Jemaine Clement, the major players returned for the sequel.

Speaking of Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam movie, it was first witnessed in theaters on October 3 in Mexico. The hype generated by The People’s Champion remained for a while. In seven weeks, the movie earned $388 million globally and was thought to be a hit.

Little did we know that Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam was a major setback. He apparently lost money due to the DCEU movie that had allegedly aimed for the $600 million mark. The WWE wrestler has now stepped down from DC as James Gunn has no further plans for him

The latter has thumped Black Adam in the box office, making up to five times in earnings within just a week. According to reports by koimoi, Avatar 2 has crossed the $1 billion threshold and is approaching 1.5 rapidly.

The worldwide gross for Avatar (2009) was just shy of $3 billion. The all-time highest-grossing movie brought in $2.97 billion. Avatar 2: Could it surpass its predecessor? The data indicates that it won’t happen at current rate, and GFR analysis supports the claim.

Are rumors of Dwayne Johnson being in Avatar 2 true?

Rarely is Tonowari from Avatar: Way of Water considered to be the Great One. His aggressive manner and Maori tattoos gave off hints that he was Dwayne Johnson. Twitter was inundated with inquiries about the casting after it was made public, with some users speculating that Johnson made a special appearance.

The Metkayina clan of the Na’vi, which resides by the sea, is led by Tonowari, who is known as the Olo’eyktan (chief). He helps the main character—Sam Worthington, played by Jake—complete his objective and shows him how to acclimate to the Metkayina way of life.

Contrary to popular belief, Johnson is not in Avatar 2. Cliff Curtis, a new addition to the cast, played the role of Metkayina’s leader. Dwayne Johnson has reacted to the rumors, presumably busy chuckling.
