Avatar: The Way of Water continues to do well at the global box office after raking up around $1.4 billion. Director James Cameron said the film would need to make at least $1.5 billion to break even and it has nearly accomplished that feat in just three weeks. The film is currently the 14th highest grossing film in history ahead of Black Panther and Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2.
'Top Gun: Maverick' Soars Again
With the way the Tom Cruise-led Top Gun: Maverick performed at the box office following its release, the fact that it has crushed its streaming numbers isn't all that surprising.

Also in the streaming realm, The Weeknd's Blinding Lights has become Spotify's most streamed song ever. It was the leading track from the Canadian crooner's After Hours album, which was certified diamond by the RIAA last year. The title of most streamed song on Spotify was previously held by Ed Sheeran's Shape of You.
