Since the very beginning (and even before the release of the first film), James Cameron has maintained his eager insistence that Avatar would be a sprawling franchise beyond the wildest imaginations of its audience. Now, after The Way of Water handily crushed 10 years of stubborn claims that the original film lacked cultural relevance, both Cameron and audiences are looking forward to Pandora’s future, with three sequels already planned for the future.
The first of these, Avatar: Fire and Ash, is set to continue the story of Jake Sully’s newfound community with the aquatic Metakayina clan, as well as once again expanding the world and the cultural dimensions of the Na’vi. In a world as boundlessly creative as this one, there’s no telling where Cameron’s imagination could take our characters next. But luckily for fans, there is some tantalizing information out there about our next collective vacation to Pandora.
