The sequel tells the story of the Sully family — Jake, Neytiri, and their children — as their land becomes torn apart. As per an official synopsis, the Sully family endures danger, battles to the death, and tragedy throughout the film. Cameron directs the feature and produces alongside Jon Landau.

"Avatar: The Way of Water" stars Zoe Saldana, Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement, and Kate Winslet. The film is slated for release on December 16, 2022. 

It returns to the fictional planet of Pandora, with much of the movie taking place in the planet's oceans. Cameron developed new technology in order to film motion capture scenes underwater, something never previously achieved. 

A third film was shot simultaneously and is set to hit theatres in December 2023.
