James Cameron will remove 4 sequels of "Avatar"

This week, well-known director James Cameron surprised fans of the film “Avatar” with a statement about upcoming sequels to hit film distribution: not just one, but as many as four. In this case, the first sequel will have to appear in cinemas already in 2018. The rest will follow in 2020, 2022 and 2023.

Initially, James planned to withdraw two sequels. Then, after talking with screenwriters, designers and other creative people, three years ago he announced the upcoming release of three sequels . At the same time, it was announced that the sequels will be released in 2016, 2017 and 2018, and even the location chosen for filming is New Zealand.

Now, his rich imagination could not keep within the framework of three films and added the fourth to them. “So far, what I see in my imagination extends far beyond the material of the first film,” he says. According to him, those few favorites who saw the preliminary concepts of new films simply “lost the power of speech”.

“We decided to create a very massive film project of four films of epic scale, each of which will be of separate value, but at the same time they will constitute one complete saga,” he explains. And he promised the audience that the next time they would see him on Pandora.

The film " Avatar " remains the most profitable film in the history of cinema, in the amount of earning a little less than $ 3 billion dollars. He is ahead of Titanic, which earned slightly more than $ 2 billion and occupies the second line of this rating - also a film that was shot by James Cameron in his script.

The action of the sci-fi film Avatar takes place in 2154, when mankind mines the valuable mineral anobtanium on Pandora, the inhabited satellite of the gas planet in the Alpha Centauri star system. In the story, the resource-producing corporation threatens the existence of a local tribe of human-like rational creatures, na'vi.

The title of the film contains the name of genetically engineered bodies, hybrids of na'vi and people, used by a team of researchers to study the planet and interact with native people. Like many films of Cameron, Avatar demonstrates a new level of visual effects for its time.
