James Cameron says "Avengers: Endgame" should enjoy its moment under the spotlight but when "Avatar 2" comes, he will reclaim the top spot of the highest grossing feature film. In July, the superhero film became the world's highest grossing movie by earning USD 2.796 billion at the box office, breaking the long standing record set by Cameron's films "Titanic" and "Avatar".

"I think it's a certainty," Cameron told USA Today about "Avatar 2" eventually passing "Avengers" in theatres. "But let's give 'Endgame' their moment and let's celebrate that people are going to the movie theatre," he added. Cameron said he "really enjoyed" the superhero tentpole from Marvel Studios but at the same time, he believes the film edged out "Avatar" by "one quarter of a per cent".
