'Avatar: Fire and Ash' remains the top box office hit with $22.6 million, while 'Marty Supreme' adds $6.7 million, contributing to a strong holiday box office performance with several new releases and holdovers performing well domestically.
'Avatar 3' is expected to dominate the Christmas box office, while new holiday releases like 'Marty Supreme,' 'Song Sung Blue,' and 'Anaconda' aim to attract diverse audiences.
