Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)
Set over a decade after the 2009 blockbuster, 'Avatar: The Way of Water' follows Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) as they grow their family among a new clan of reef-dwelling Na'vi. Stephen Lang returns to play Colonel Quaritch, who will be the big bad of all 4 sequels and "evolve into really unexpected places" according to Lang. Sigourney Weaver, CCH Pounder, Giovanni Ribisi, and Joel David Moore are also back for at least this first sequel. Rounding out the new recruits are Michelle Yeoh, Edie Falco, Vin Diesel, Cliff Curtis, Jemaine Clement, and Kate Winslet, who learned to free dive to play a reef-dwelling Metkayina called Ronal.

    • Trivia
      According to James Cameron, the Avatar sequels were such a massive undertaking that he divided the three scripts between the writing team of Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, Josh Friedman and Shane Salerno. Cameron delves further explaining the story process: "I think we met for seven months and we white boarded out every scene in every film together, and I didn't assign each writer which film they were going to work on until the last day. I knew if I assigned them their scripts ahead of time, they'd tune out every time we were talking about the other movie."
