Now other than this let us brief you a bit about the reviews and the ratings the Avatar show has received from the time of its release, Avatar has slowly been decided to be converted into a franchise instead of just a trilogy or something. The movie covers the story of a futuristic world, where the world conditions have gone down and there is an existence of a human-like creature who is known as Navi, and they are blue-skinned, immune to a typical kind of poisonous gas, very tall, and the scientist from the earth, to know more about them have created hybrids who look just like the Navi and sent them to their world.

Now coming to the main topic of this article, we already know that James Cameron has got his name on the lists of some of the richest direct out there, and one of the most heard rumours is that, Avatar has contributed the most to his net worth, more than any other movie. However, unfortunately, that’s not true, and there are many of his other creations of his, which have contributed huge sums of money to his wealth. Other than that, it’s also true that James Cameron made a lot of money from Avatar, and to know more and the exact amount does continue reading this article till the end. James Cameron Earning From Avatar Now one thing that has been rumoured a lot is regarding the earning of James Cameron from Avatar, and how that has contributed the most to his net worth. Now in the previous statement, we have already told, that other creations have topped the mark when it comes to contributing to his net worth and when it comes to Avatar, which has also earned a huge amount of 2.847 billion just with a budget of 237 million, we just see money bills flying over the head of James Cameron. However, James wasn’t quite greedy and stuff and after dividing all profits with the other partners, investors, and the studios, he kept for himself nearly a 10 per cent cut of the film according to some sources which ends up being near 250 million dollars, however, we can’t confirm anything, because nothing has been revealed by any legitimate sources or the man himself. The only thing that we know is that James Cameron who has got a net worth of nearly 700 million dollars or more, has been profitable in everything he has done so far in his career, and he is set to earn some other big bucks with the release of the second Avatar movie this year and the other which have been scheduled for 2024 and coming years. There have been other rumours too, that state that James has walked away from the film with more than 350 million dollars, but based on all sources and what we have studied till now, we can state that it’s just a false assumption and nothing of that sort has been stated by any trusted sources.

Avatar Story From what we have seen the writer of the Avatar franchise is set to create a completely different universe in which both the Navi and, both the humans exist but both of them have their own places. The setting of the story is in 2154 and the natural resources of the earth have all depleted, there is some kind of poisonous gas covering the whole atmosphere of pandora which is a fictional moon of fictional planets where the human resource departments are mining a certain kind of mineral for energy and on that planet immune to the poisonous gas live the Navi, a creature with great height and blue skin and they have complete harmony with the nature. Now the earth scientist has decided that they want to discover more about the universe in which these Navi live and so they have made some human hybrids with Navi genes and named them Avatars who get into the Navi territory bring out information about what goes in their planet. While doing all this one of the Avatars who was the head of the program faces some unexpected adventure and is introduced to the Navi society, however the human research centres who have mainly initiated this operation have got other plans regarding pandora. Now the new movies that will release soon will mainly have the same setting as this story and this is the main universe that exists.
