with exceptions very fewevery film that James Cameron directs becomes a mega-hit at the box office. With Avatar: The Sense of Water, it was not enough to overcome the barrier of 1,000 million dollars: to continue his saga, Cameron needed the colossal investment made to make it a reality and the impact generated would be much greater than that of current blockbusters. Having seen what has been seen, and according to his words, he has done it again.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter,
It seems that the current momentum you have [Avatar El Sentido del Agua] in the next few days it is enough to be calm, so everything indicates that we will continue: I have no choice but to do the other sequels.
For Cameron, Avatar is the project of his life. to the point where got rid of what was done in the second installment and raised it again. The sequel took so long to produce that even some actor thought the movie came out years ago and didn’t work.
The good news is that the third installment, in which we will be introduced to a new tribe of Pandora, it’s already rotated since it was recorded at the same time Avatar 2
I already know what I am going to do in the next six or seven years. The point is that we’re going to be fine. I’m sure we’ll have a discussion with the top folks at Disney soon about plans for Avatar 3, which is already in production: we’ve already captured and photographed the entire movie, so we’re in extended post-production to do all that CG magic. .
And what will happen to the other two deliveries? Technically, they are written and we know the direction the saga will take. Avatar, but the script has to be done. We know from Cameron’s side that part of the fourth film is already shotbut between now and when we see it, there may be many changes and new technological revolutions.
And then Avatar 4 and 5 will be scripted. We even have some cuts of 4 already shot. We have started a franchise at this point. We have started a saga that can now be developed into multiple movies.
In any case, Avatar 3 It is already well on track and it even has a release date: it is expected that the December 20, 2024 hit theaters after footage cuts and the post-production process. If everything goes according to plan, It will be a hit at the box office again.
