Fans have had to wait 13 lengthy years for the release of James Cameron’s Avatar: The Way of Water—aka the sequel to the highest-grossing film of all time, Avatar, which raked in over $2.92 billion worldwide *and* collected 9 Oscar noms, NBD. Per Deadline, tried-and-true followers of the saga clearly ran to the films as a end result of, thus far, they have contributed over $2.12 billion to Avatar: The Way of Water’s box office income not even a month after its theatrical release on December 16, 2022. (BTW, the Academy has additionally awarded the film four Oscar nominations for Best Picture, Best Production Design, Best Sound, and Best Visual Effects.)
All of that mentioned, chances are given the over decades-long pause that James liiiiikely didn’t want us to observe the film curled up our laptops…however alas! Times are altering and I personally have not paid ~$30 for a large soda IRL at the movies in years. Whether you wish to see what all the Avatar 2 hype is about or watch it for the 47th time, here’s everything you should know about tips on how to watch *and* stream the movie for my fellow lazy viewers.

Is Avatar: The Way of Water obtainable to stream?
Right now, the movie remains to be only enjoying in theaters, but viewers can count on to see it on Disney+ sooner or later…the question is just a matter of *when*. According to People, Disney announced in September 2021 that its remaining movies would have a minimum 45-day unique theatrical release.
If Avatar: The Way of Water follows that arrangement, the public can count on it to hit the streamer on January 30, 2023, aka two days ago. According to my constant refreshing on the Disney+ page, that clearly hasn’t happened yet! And possibly it will not happen for a while longer on situation that other current releases (such as Black Panther: Wakanda Forever) are set to begin streaming 82 days after opening. Plus, if this movie’s anything like the original Avatar (which stayed in theaters for a whopping 238 days), the wait could be even longer 😬.
So how can I watch the Avatar sequel right now?
As of now, the only approach to watch Avatar: The Way of Water is to really go to the film theaters in person. Otherwise, you’ll simply have to wait for it to become out there to hire or buy on the usuals: Amazon Video, Apple, YouTube, Vudu, and so on.

Has James Cameron said anything new about Avatar: The Way of Water?
For all of its success, the Avatar sequel has gotten *some* hate in phrases of whether or not it is made any real cultural influence. The director’s take, which he recently dished to The Hollywood Reporter, is as follows:
“If people are less likely to bear in mind Jake Sully than, say, Luke Skywalker, that’s partly because Avatar is only one movie into its mythology. When you’ve extraordinary success, you come again within the next three years. That’s just how the business works. You come again to the well, and you construct that cultural impact over time. Marvel had possibly 26 motion pictures to construct out a universe, with the characters cross-pollinating. So it’s an irrelevant argument. We’ll see what occurs after this film.”
TBH, fair!
