James Cameron says he may not direct the final ‘Avatar’ films

Paramount/Skydance’s “Terminator: Dark Fate” was originally planned to help revive the stale time-traveling cyberpunk string of movies with the hopes that the new installment, that brought back both original stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton, would end the Connor Family saga allowing for films to pivot towards other characters in two other potential follow-ups. However, those trilogy plans were paused when “Dark Fate” only managed to earn $261 million globally with a hefty production budget of $185 million, which combined with marketing costs would suggest the film wasn’t able to turn a profit.

Ubisoft has delayed Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora, quietly confirming a 2023-2024 release window in a first-quarter fiscal sales report.While the report highlights a “slightly better than expected” performance for the company, the rest of the report details a significant delay to Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora.While Avatar: Frontiers Of Pandora was originally meant to launch in 2022 and coincide with the release of James Cameron‘s upcoming film Avatar: The Way of Water, Ubisoft has shared that it will now launch in either 2023 or 2024.On the delay, Ubisoft shared that while it is still committed to creating “a cutting-edge immersive experience that takes full advantage of next-gen technology,” the studio needs more time to do that.“While this additional development time is a reflection of the current ongoing constraints on productions across the industry, we are hard at work to design the most efficient working conditions to ensure both flexibility,” explained Ubisoft.In the report, Ubisoft added that it has also delayed a “smaller unannounced premium game” to 2023-2024.“The new high-value mobile partnership for one of our brands reflects the powerful appeal of our brands for the fast-growing AAA mobile segment,” shared Ubisoft co-founder and CEO Yves Guillemot. “It also provides our teams with more time to fully realize their creative vision and deliver high-quality experiences for our fans, while at the same time increasing our visibility for both 2022-23 and 2023-24.”Earlier in the week, developers at Ubisoft discussed how “entitled gamers” make launching new games an unpleasant experience.

Avatar director James Cameron is begging viewers to feel free to go to the bathroom during his new movie Avatar: The Way of the Water — because he sure as s**t isn’t going to factor their pee break into the run-time!

James Cameron has defended Avatar: The Way Of Water‘s three-hour runtime, saying those who find the film too long can simply “get up and go pee”.READ MORE: Avatar 2: Everything we know about the upcoming sci-fi epicSpeaking to Empire, the director said he didn’t want to see people complaining about the upcoming sequel’s length when many are quite willing to binge-watch several hours of TV in one sitting.“I don’t want anybody whining about length when they sit and binge-watch [television] for eight hours,” he said. “I can almost write this part of the review.

James Cameron isn’t afraid to fire back at trolls criticizing “Avatar”.

It’s been well over a decade since James Cameron unleashed the behemoth known as “Avatar” on the film industry. At the time, the film shattered nearly every box office record on its way to a massive $2.74 billion worldwide gross (the film has gone on to be released a couple of times, putting that total up to $2.85 billion).

Empire, Cameron said the fact that sci-fi films take so much time to make might mean he won’t be captaining the ship on the final two movies.“The Avatar films themselves are kind of all-consuming,” he told the outlet. “I’ve got some other things I’m developing as well that are exciting.”“I think eventually over time – I don’t know if that’s after three or after four – I’ll want to pass the baton to a director that I trust to take over, so I can go do some other stuff that I’m also interested in.

While we all saw Stephen Lang’s villenous Colonel Quaritch die in the first “Avatar” film, the actor is clearly returning in the upcoming sequel. Now, months before the new film hits theaters, Lang is explaining his miraculous resurrection (appears in a new avatar body in the teaser trailer) for the upcoming sequel in a new interview with Empire Magazine.

By the time “Avatar: The Way of Water” hits theaters this December, it’ll have been 13 years between “Avatar” films. While it’s still a big question mark whether James Cameron’s sequel can top the original’s box office ($2.8 billion), 20th Century Studios went all-in on five ‘Avatar’ films long ago, regardless.

As the world eagerly awaits the December premiere of Avatar: The Way Of Water, James Cameron’s sequel to the highest-grossing movie ever, comes word that Cameron may not direct the later two planned films in the series himself.

Avatar may not be going the distance with James Cameron.

Making “Avatar” movies is tough, even for James Cameron.

Sigourney Weaver is proving she’s ageless in the next “Avatar” movie.

When Sigourney Weaver appeared on the cast list for James Cameron’s upcoming “Avatar: The Way Of Water,” fans of the mega-franchise had some serious questions. Namely, who is she playing in the sequel? For those who don’t remember (and it’s okay if you don’t, because “Avatar” came out in 2009, and no one except for franchise uber-fans have watched it since), Weaver played Dr.

Zack Sharf “Avatar” fans have known for quite some time that Sigourney Weaver is coming back for the upcoming sequel, “Avatar: The Way of Water,” but her return has been a giant question mark given that her character, Dr. Grace Augustine, died in the first movie. It turns out Weaver is playing not only a brand new character in “The Way of Water,” but a teenage Na’vi who is the adoptive daughter of Jake (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldana).
