As Avatar: The Way of Water still climbs at the box office, nearing the $2B mark worldwide, director James Cameron is already teasing fans about the next installment in the franchise. Cameron talked to Deadline while attending the Critics Choice Awards and offered some insight on Avatar 3. The film will feature fire elements and will have two new cultures introduced.
“Fire has a symbolic purpose in the film and there’s a culture that is specifically around that concept. That’s probably saying too much as we speak,” he told Deadline.
Cameron continued, “You’re going to meet two completely new cultures in the next film. We met the Omaticaya, we met the Metkayina, and you’re going to meet two new cultures in the next film, and it kind of rove a little more freely around the world of Pandora to different places.”
