Avatar Sequels!!

[yngsimba.sneakershoebox]

After the completely derailed Zoe Saldana thread, I looked her up on wikipedia to see what other movies she has been in.
Anyway, it says she is listed in Avatar 2 & 3. 

I'm jumping the gun on the thread for this, but I'm definitely excited. 

In 2006, Cameron stated that if Avatar was successful, he hoped to make two sequels to the film. In 2010, he said the film's widespread success confirmed that he will. The prospect of sequels was something he planned from the start, going so far as to include certain scenes in the film for future story followups.[sup]][/sup] Cameron said he wants to make the sequel "cheaper and faster" and that the story will be a continuation of the characters introduced in Avatar. When being interviewed by AP on the red carpet of the 82nd Academy Awards, Cameron stated "if I were to startAvatar 2 tomorrow, it would still be three years away." In an August 2010 interview, Cameron stated that his plans are to shoot both sequels in the planned trilogy back-to-back and that he was waiting for deals to be made. He also mentioned, "what I'm working on primarily is the novel" and "presumably, once the novel is nailed down, work will begin in earnest on getting the sequel going." In an interview in Perth's Sunday Times onSeptember 12, 2010, Cameron revealed his intention to capturefootage for this sequel at the bottom of the Mariana Trench. For this purpose he has commissioned a deepwater submersible. In October 2010, Cameron officially signed an agreement with Fox to direct two sequels to Avatar, which are scheduled to be released in December 2014 and December 2015. Both sequels will be produced by Cameron's own Lightstorm Entertainment in partnership with 20th Century Fox.

Though plots for future sequels have not been laid out yet, Cameron stated that they are going to widen the universe while exploring other moons ofPolyphemus.The first sequel will focus on the ocean of Pandora but will also feature more of the rainforest from the original movie. It will continue to follow the characters of Jake and Neytiri. Cameron implied that the humans would return as the antagonists of the story. "I expect that those nasty humans didn't go away forever," he said. Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana have signed on to reprise their roles in future sequels, and Stephen Lang, who played Colonel Miles Quaritch, believes his character could make a return: "You think those two arrows in my chest are going to stop me from coming back?" Lang told Entertainment Weekly, "Nothing's over so long as they've got my DNA." In February 2010,Sigourney Weaver, who played Dr. Grace Augustine, announced the possibility of her return for a sequel in an interview for the Le Grand Journal TV Show in Paris.



In December 2011, in an interview Cameron told that he is writing second and third films together and he plans to make them visually stunning. The storyline of the films would explore the oceans of Pandora and the environmental message of the films would be for saving the oceans of our blue planet.[sup][295[/sup]

Although the movie wasn't so good imo, the visuals were great.

I'm just as excited for those movies as well as you OP but...
I hate when they announce movies WAY before they're even released and/or worked on.
