AvatarTheWayOfWater's Jon Landau reveals if he thinks James Cameron would let another director take on 'Avatar.'
We still have a lot of ground to cover until we see the end of the Avatar franchise. As you may know, Avatar: The Way of Water is the first of four installments planned, with new entries rolling out every two years. On top of that, director and screenwriter James Cameron has already teased he has ideas for Avatar 6 and 7.
In a previous interview with Collider, Cameron alluded to the idea of another filmmaker taking on the project, and stated that “there are a lot of good filmmakers out there and a lot of good filmmakers that understand how to do CG and animation and world-building and all that sort of thing,” and stressed that it would take a lot of time to transfer the knowledge he accumulated over the last decade to someone else.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY “I do think it's a possibility because I think you would've said the same thing when Jim wrote his draft of ‘Alita: Battle Angel,’ that Jim's never going to give this up for someone else to do.
Avatar: The Way of Water chronicles the life of Jake and Neytiri 14 years after they first crossed paths. Now, they need to lead the Na’vi in defending Pandora–and their kids–one more time. The cast also features Kate Winslet, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Giovanni Ribisi, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement, CCH Pounder, Bailey Bass, Cliff Curtis, and many others.
The blockbuster premieres in theaters this Friday, December 16. You can watch our full conversation with Jon Landau below.
