The world of Pandora is set to grow even vaster!

Director James Cameron has revealed plans for "Avatar 6" and "Avatar 7," extending the record-breaking franchise far beyond the currently scheduled conclusion with "Avatar 5" in 2031. While he acknowledges his age may prompt him to "hand over the baton" at that point, the creative engine behind Pandora is clearly buzzing with ideas.

This news comes amidst the ongoing production of "Avatar 3" and partial filming of "Avatar 4," both set to be helmed by Cameron himself. Disney holds the release dates for these first three sequels: "Avatar 3" on December 19, 2025, "Avatar 4" on December 21, 2029, and "Avatar 5" on December 19, 2031. However, Cameron's imagination transcends these deadlines.

Zoe Saldaña, reprising her role as Neytiri, fuels the excitement by describing the upcoming sequels as "crazy" and praising Cameron for blowing everyone's minds with his vision. She confirms filming for "Avatar 3" resumes next week, hinting at the imminent return to Pandora.

Previously, Cameron shed light on "Avatar 4," revealing a significant time jump in the narrative. To ensure seamless aging of the characters, he strategically filmed portions of both "Avatar 3" and "Avatar 4" concurrently with "The Way of Water."

But the expansion doesn't stop there. Producer Jon Landau has unveiled intriguing details about "Avatar 3," introducing the Ash People, a volcanic and aggressive Na'vi tribe led by Varang (played by Oona Chaplin). He also tantalized fans with a glimpse into "Avatar 5," suggesting a daring leap to Earth, marking the franchise's first visit to our home planet.

This news paints a captivating picture of an ever-evolving Avatar universe. While Cameron may eventually "hand over the baton," his meticulous planning and innovative approach ensure a smooth transition. Fans can anticipate not only more epic adventures on Pandora but also a potentially groundbreaking journey to Earth in later installments.

Get ready, for the world of Pandora is far from finished captivating audiences. With "Avatar 6" and "Avatar 7" in the pipeline, and Earth beckoning in the distance, the Na'vi saga promises to be a cinematic marathon, captivating viewers for years to come.
