Among 2025 films, what box office rank did Avatar: Fire and Ash reach worldwide?

Among 2025 films, Avatar: Fire and Ash reached the worldwide box-office rank of third-highest-grossing. It earned approximately $1.49 billion globally, placing it behind Ne Zha 2 and Zootopia 2 in the 2025 annual rankings.

The result was a major commercial success, although it did not surpass the earlier Avatar films. Avatar remains one of the biggest worldwide hits ever, while Avatar: The Way of Water also exceeded $2 billion. Fire and Ash became the lowest-grossing entry in the franchise despite its enormous total.

A common mix-up is confusing its annual rank with its all-time rank. Its third-place position refers only to films released during 2025; its worldwide all-time position was much lower, around the mid-teens. Box-office rankings can also shift slightly as late international grosses are reported or updated.
