James Cameron has said that he is working on two more Avatar sequels, which he said would likely be shot simultaneously.
We will have to wait a while though. According to MovieWeb, Cameron told KTLA 5 Morning News that Avatar 2 will likely not be out until 2014.
“Right now, the thinking is that two and three are going to be done together,” he said. “They’ll be released separately, probably a year apart or maybe even two, but they’ll be done in a bunch. I’m mapping out the storyline right now.”
Cameron also said that he is working on a fully live action movie that he would probably shoot before Avatar 2. Plus he is also planning another underwater documentary.
If you bought the Avatar Blu-Ray a few months back, don’t be surprised by this. THR have news that the 2D DVD and Blu-ray Disc special editions expected to hit store shelves in November will feature at least 16 minutes of extra footage. A 3D version of the movie for home viewing will be out next year
Producer Jon Landau said new scenes included in the now 171-minute theatrical special edition due out on 27th August include action sequences and narrative-deepening extensions of key scenes involving the blue-skinned Na’vi of Pandora and their human visitors.
“We tried to look at what people have responded to in the film and give them more of that,” said Landau. “There’s a whole new scene that takes place in the (Na’vi) school, there’s more night bioluminescence, there’s new creatures, and there is a new action scene. The scenes don’t just feel like added scenes — they are very organic to the story and embellish it.”
“About every 15 minutes you’ll get something new that you haven’t seen before, which is kind of cool,” Fox domestic distribution chief Bruce Snyder said. “People want to go back to Pandora on the big screen.”
I just want Cameron’s The Abyss to come out on Blu-Ray. Will you be going to see the Avatar Special Edition?
