And while the worldwide re-release of Avatar is slated for September 23, it will release on Thursday, September 22 in UAE and the rest of the Middle East, as per a report.
Cameron’s Avatar became the top-grossing film of all time at the worldwide box office with more than $2.8 billion in revenues. It was nominated for nine Academy Awards including best picture and best director, and won three Oscars, for best cinematography, production design and visual effects.
