Avatar: The Way of Water might have had an underwhelming opening weekend, but audiences are still heading to the theaters to see the sequel.

The film actually surpassed Top Gun: Maverick to become the highest-grossing film of 2022 worldwide.
Thanks in part to the success of The Way of Water, creator James Cameron is now revealing plans on a third film!
Avatar: The Way of Water
In the first two Avatar films we meet two clans of Na’vi that reside on Pandora: the forest-dwelling Omaticaya and the water-dwelling Metkayina. According to Variety, Cameron said he is already planning the next installment which will feature another Na’vi clan that isn’t as peaceful as the ones we’re familiar with.

It appears that he’s going with an elemental theme, revealing the next clan we will be introduced to will represent fire and are currently being referred to as the ‘Ash People.’ Cameron stated “I want to show the Na’vi from another angle because, so far, I have only shown their good sides.” He also said the first two films posed the Na’vi as the positive influence and humans a negative, and the plans for the third movie are to turn that notion on its head. Apparently this new clan might come with a fiery temper.

This time around, it looks like the Na’vi will be the antagonists while the humans are the protagonists — this movie will be opposite from the prior two films. We’ll also get to explore “new worlds” — we can’t wait!

While we don’t know any specifics about the storyline or even the official title of the film, production has concluded and Avatar 3 is scheduled to have its theatrical premiere on December 20th, 2024!
