What will Avatar: The Way of Water be about?

Disney describes Avatar 2: "Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, Avatar: The Way of Water begins to tell the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their kids), the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive, and the tragedies they endure."

When is Avatar returning to Disney+?

The first movie was removed from Disney+ ahead of its re-release in cinema’s but is expected to return to the streaming platform at some point after the release of Avatar: The Way of Water.

The sequel officially began production in 2017 but the mix of live action and motion capture elements meant that the film took a while to make.

In September 2020, James Cameron revealed that Avatar 2 was done, and Avatar 3 was ‘around 95%’ done. Meaning fans may not have to wait as long to return to Pandora.

The director has also revealed that some of Avatar 4 has also already been filmed. Cameron told Variety: "Anything that had to be done with a specific actor, we did all the scenes for 2 and 3 together – and a little bit of 4."
