Very few major film franchises have experienced the same level of international success as James Cameron's Avatar, which is still the highest-grossing film of all time with $2.85 billion in worldwide box office receipts as of 2022 when the 2009 blockbuster was re-released. Along with a visually spectacular debut teaser and exclusive footage presented at CinemaCon, the year also saw the official title of Avatar 2 revealed: Avatar: The Way of Water, which greatly increased fan anticipation.
Fortunately, after patiently anticipating sequels for years, during which some viewers watched the first film for the first time, the wait will soon be over. In fact, we'll start our assessment of all the information we currently know about the blockbuster when the Avatar franchise hits theatres on the day in 2022 when it's scheduled to be released.
Avatar: The Way of Water was supposed to come out in 2015, but there have been numerous delays since then. The unexpected inclusion of the fifth instalment in 2016, the Disney/Fox merger in 2017, and, of course, the Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020 were the events that caused this prolonged wait.
Thankfully, James Cameron announced that main photography on Avatar 2 had concluded and that the third film was also nearing completion in September of that same year. The movie was already scheduled to hit theatres on December 16, 2022, when it is currently expected to earn $135–175 million in one weekend. By that point, the release date had already been decided.
James Cameron hinted that the sequels to 2016's Toruk, which were still in the early stages of development, would be a family story following the ongoing exploits of Jake Sully, Neytiri, and their kids. Producer Jon Landau effectively repeated the phrase in 2020, long before the then-rumoured title of Avatar: The Way of Water was made official when he offered more precise information about the plot.
Landau continued, saying that Jake and Neytiri's family would have to abandon their house and travel to other parts of Pandora, particularly areas that are submerged in water. It may be reasonable to presume that they will meet the Metkayina, a tribe of aquatic Na'vi, at this point.
There will be at least three more films after Avatar: The Way of Water, even if it has a runtime that is more than three hours. Avatar 3 was simultaneously filmed with Avatar 2, has a current release date of December 20, 2024, and was largely completed as of late 2021. For Avatar 4, which is currently scheduled to release on December 16, 2026, Cameron and the company still need to accomplish a few things.
While the fourth instalment was being created, it actually spent a few years without receiving formal approval from Disney. The same is true for Avatar 5, which is currently scheduled for December 22, 2028.
It is no secret that Avatar had detractors despite its popularity. However, it seems that those who genuinely do still have a soft spot in their hearts for the thrilling, visually spectacular sci-fi extravaganza will have plenty of chances to visit Pandora in the coming years. When Avatar: The Way of Water hits theatres soon, the adventure continues.
