Avatar: The Way of Water trailer gets massive 148.6 million views in first 24 hours

The trailer for Avatar 2 hit over 148.6 million views on its first day, according to combined figures across YouTube and social media, confirmed by Disney and 20th century. The teaser trailer was dropped online on Monday and has already amassed millions of views – showing that director Cameron can well and truly put to bed his concerns that nobody will watch his four Avatar sequels.

The trailer was first shown to CinemaCon attendees in late April and was then released at cinemas over the weekend. The trailer has been a global success, with Disney and 20th Century saying that it received 23 million viewers in China alone.
