What has been left up to speculation by James Cameron in the months following the release of his epic fantasy film Avatar has now been confirmed by 20th Century Fox: Avatar 2 will hit cinemas in December 2014, and Avatar 3 in December 2015. Looking ahead much? Apparently not- Cameron has issued a press statement that the flicks, rumoured to be filmed back-to-back with the same award-winning CGI technology as their predecessor, will be "self-contained films" but "also fulfil a greater story arc" and have the goal of "expanding global audiences' expectations for the richness of the visual world and the power of storytelling" (so no pressure on the cast and crew, then!). No plot details have been released yet, but earlier this year the director sparked discussion that Avatar 2 might involve the creatures that lie beneath the surface of Pandora. Bearing in mind that those release dates are subject to change, fans can rest assured that they'll be able to fit in quite a few repeat viewings of the original before the sequels arrive!
