James Cameron Will Make Four ‘Avatar’ Sequels, He Tells CinemaCon

James Cameron came out at the end of Twentieth Century Fox’s pixel-heavy CinemaCon Thursday morning presentation to make his own stand against The Screening Room, which he sees as yet another assault on the “sanctity” of the moviegoing experience, he said. “Our job as filmmakers,” Cameron said, “is to keep making films that play best on the big screen, and take advantage of that enormous canvas and continue to make this industry the greatest show on earth.”

 And he’s doing his part by not only making two or three “Avatar” sequels—which are currently being written by four screenwriters and designed by the best Hollywood artists, but four. The epic and immersive world of Pandora that is coming to Orlando as a theme park and to Cirque de Soleil as a spectacle and to Dark Horse “Avatar” Comics is going to be four movies, set to arrive in theaters in the years to come, starting in 2018.
