The wait is finally over. After more than a decade since the release of James Cameron’s epic sci-fi blockbuster “Avatar,” the director has finally debuted the first look at “Avatar 2” to the CinemaCon crowd.
Disney during its presentation to CinemaCon on Wednesday handed out 3D goggles to everyone in the crowd and showed actual footage from “Avatar 2,” and producer Jon Landau was on hand to present the footage. He additionally announced that the original “Avatar” would be re-released in theaters on September 23 globally.
The second film is officially called “Avatar: The Way of Water,” and Disney’s distribution chief said the trailer will debut exclusively ahead of “Doctor Strange 2” next week, followed by an online release the following week. In addition to seeing an older and wiser Jake Sully in his Avatar form and an expanded world on Pandora, it also showcased its incredible underwater cinematography that looked extra special in the 3D goggles, including Sully riding some aquatic monsters.
“I know one thing, wherever we go, this family is our fortress,” Sam Worthington says in the teaser trailer. Landau said the Sully family of Jake and Neytiri would be the center of each movie, that each would have its own standalone story and would have its own emotional closure but would have an overarching thread across the four movies to “achieve a greater saga.” Cameron, who in 2016 announced plans for four sequels, also shared a brief recorded message about the movie, first acknowledging that it’s been rough on the exhibition community in the hardest way for the last 40 years that he’s been making movies.
