Avatar 2 is a planned sequel to the 2009 film Avatar. The
film has been under development since 2010. Cameron has already confirmed the sequel,
which will be shot before Battle Angel. James Cameron has stated that the film will
likely not be entitled "Avatar 2", since Jake is no longer an avatar
at the end of the first movie, but rather a Na'vi; no final title has yet been
announced.
Plot Summary:
The three "Avatar" sequels will be filmed
simultaneously with production beginning in 2014. The release of the first
sequel will be in December 2016, with the second to follow in December 2017,
and the third a year later. "Avatar" 2, 3, and 4 will be produced by
James Cameron and Jon Landau through their Lightstorm Entertainment banner.
Like the original film, Lightstorm will work with Joe Letteri and his team at
WETA Digital to realize the worlds of the sequels.

Release:
When the sequels were first being discussed in 2010, the
film was scheduled to be released in December of 2014. By 2012 the film had
been delayed to 2015, and again in 2013 to December 2016. Following an
announcement in January 2015, the film was scheduled for December 2017.
However after Star Wars- Episode VIII was rescheduled into
the same Christmas 2017 slot, studios became wary of potential box office
supersaturation, with two of the potentially highest grossing movies of all
time screening simultaneously. Avatar 2 was ultimately delayed again, to the
summer of 2018.
The film has been confirmed for an IMAX release as well as
the regular format.
