‘Avatar 2’ release date: How James Cameron is filming all 3 the sequels in consecutive fashion

“Avatar 2” is one of the most awaited movie sequels today. James Cameron released the original film in 2009, and it was a certified blockbuster worldwide, so there is no doubt that it calls for a sequel.

It has been ten years since the fans saw the Pandora and the Na’vi people and it is really time to bring them back to the theaters. The movie was on break for a decade, and Cameron also thinks that he made the fans wait far too long so to compensate them for their patience and support, the director created not just one sequel to “Avatar,” but there are three more titles.

The sequels are being filmed consecutively

The amazing thing is that James Cameron is filming the four “Avatar” movies, back to back. He revealed that he made this decision so that fans will no longer have to wait for a long time after one sequel is released. His plan is to deliver “Avatar 2” and the rest with just a 12-month gap each.

How Cameron is filming the sequels

The director is done filming “Avatar 2,” and he is said to be working on the fourth sequel now. Here’s how James Cameron and his team managed to pull it off according to producer Jon Landau.

Landau shared that in filming the four sequels, there are parts that are meant for one or two sequels, but they are being filmed at the same time. This means that they shoot different parts of the movies simultaneously.

He added that they also made sure that the staff and the cast fully understand what they are doing. He also compared the filming of ‘Avatar 2” and the rest to shooting a miniseries but this one on a “super scale."

"I think what we had to get our heads around is the first 'Avatar' was a marathon," Landau told Business Insider during the CinemaCon last year. "There are segments of that miniseries that need to come to completion for the story arc, and then you build upon that and now we're running a triathlon."

“Avatar 2” is set to be released in cinemas on Dec. 18, 2020.
