Avatar Sequel Will Be A Family Drama Says James Cameron

Celebrated film-maker-director-producer James Cameron, confirms that the sequel of the hit animated movie Avatar is going to be a "family saga" and probably will focus largely on the aspects of human life and struggle.

"The storyline in the sequels really follows Sam Worthington as Jake and Zoe Saldana as Neytiri and their children. It's more of a family saga about the struggle with the humans," Cameron stated.

The director had also promised that the second installment would appear during Christmas 2018, and he wants the other sequels to follow closely to one another.

"We haven't moved that target yet, but we will if we need to. The important thing for me is not when the first one comes out but the cadence of the release pattern." Cameron said.

"I want them to be released as close together as possible. If it's an annual appointment to show up at Christmas, I want to make sure that we're able to fulfil on that promise," he added.

Production on Avatar-2 will possibly start in 2017. Stephen Lang and Sigourney Weaver both are expected to reprise their respective roles; however, it will be interesting to see how they are portrayed in the sequel as both of their characters had died in the first part.
