From his innovative filmmaking techniques in Titanic to his real-life sea exploration, James Cameron has always been focused on the future. In recent years, he’s kept this momentum going by setting lofty goals for his Avatar franchise, which began in 2009, has a third installment coming this year, and has additional movies scheduled for 2029 and 2031.
Filming has already started for Avatar 4, although there’s a six-year time jump during the first act. While Cameron waits for his young actors to grow up, he’s picked up a new project that may premiere before Avatar 4 can even resume production. While this new movie is an exciting fantasy adaptation, Cameron’s involvement is different from what you might think.
