North American box office No. 1 for five consecutive weeks, and worldwide box office revenue surpassing $1.3 billion, the film Avatar: Fire and Ash achieved the feat of being nominated for visual effects and costume design at the 98th Academy Awards, once again cementing the Avatar series' presence.
The film Avatar: Fire and Ash (director James Cameron, imported/distributed by The Walt Disney Company Korea) — which has continued long-run box office momentum amid glowing reviews — was named a nominee in the visual effects and costume institutional sector at the 98th Academy Awards on the 22nd (local time), once again proving the overwhelming technical prowess and mesmerizing visuals that only Avatar can deliver
In particular, being named a nominee for visual effects follows Avatar, which won the visual effects award at the 82nd Academy Awards, and Avatar: The Way of Water, which won the visual effects award at the 95th Academy Awards, marking the record of every film in the series being nominated; if this leads to a win, it would achieve the remarkable feat of three consecutive wins, drawing even more attention. The Avatar series has recorded the highest immortal box office revenue among trilogy series, surpassing the Star Wars sequels trilogy and the Jurassic World trilogy, and the world is watching to see whether it can continue to extend the series' astonishing records.
The film Avatar: Fire and Ash tells the story of an even greater crisis unfolding on Pandora, covered in fire and ash, after the death of Jake and Neytiri's eldest son Neteiyam, when the ash tribe led by Bhran appears before the Sully family, who are grieving, and as the third installment of the Avatar series that drew 13.62 million domestic viewers and achieved global box office success, it is currently being widely screened at theaters nationwide.<
