James Cameron “Celebrates” The Success With ‘Avengers: Endgame’

“Avengers: Endgame” has officially surpassed the box office record of “Titanic” and the epic disaster film’s director, James Cameron, was gracious enough to congratulate the “Endgame” team for the accomplishment.

On Wednesday night, Cameron shared a picture of the Avengers logo shaped like an iceberg, sinking the Titanic. “To Kevin and everybody at Marvel,” Cameron wrote on Instagram. “An iceberg sank the real Titanic. It took the Avengers to sink my Titanic. Everyone here at Lightstorm Entertainment salutes your amazing achievement. You’ve shown that the movie industry is not only alive and well, but it’s also bigger than ever.”

“Cameron apparently changed his tune since last year, when he expressed hope that people would start feeling Avengers fatigue,” CNET reported. “The superhero epic earned $2.189 billion in the first 12 days since its release in late April, passing Avengers: Infinity War, Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the $2.187 billion Cameron’s 1997 movie made in their theatrical runs. Now it’s second only to 2009’s Avatar — also from Cameron — which earned $2.788 billion during its run.”

But the race isn’t over. Cameron is working on four sequels to his box office smash hit “Avatar,” scheduled for release in 2021, 2023, 2025 and 2027. Time will tell if these films will be at the box office record of “Avengers.” The original “Avatar,” released in 2009, is still the top-grossing film of all time, earning $2.788 billion during its theatrical run.
