Avatar: The Way of Water comes to theaters on December 16, with a third Avatar film–which has already been filmed–penciled in for 2024. A fourth movie could follow in 2026 if the series proves to be successful, and now writer-director James Cameron has shared some information on Part 4.
He told Collider that while he cannot get into specifics, Avatar 4–or whatever official title it ends up receiving–is a film that “goes nuts in a good way.” A studio executive who read Cameron’s script for Avatar told him in an email, “Holy f**k.”
“I can’t tell you the details, but all I can say is that when I turned in the script for 2, the studio gave me three pages of notes. And when I turned in the script for 3, they gave me a page of notes, so I was getting better. When I turned in the script for 4, the studio executive, creative executive over the films wrote me an email that said, ‘Holy f**k.’ And I said, ‘Well, where are the notes?’ And she said, ‘Those are the notes.’ Because it kind of goes nuts in a good way, right?”
