"Avatar 3"
"Avatar 3" is expected to be released on December 19, 2025.
Some scenes of the third film were shot together with "Avatar 2", so principal photography was actually completed in December 2020. Most of the original cast is expected to return, including Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Zoe Saldana, Giovanni Ribisi, Stephen Lange, etc. wait.

Regarding the specific plot of "Avatar 3", there are currently not many details, but there are rumors (unconfirmed) that the title of this movie may be "Avatar: Seedbringer", which may contain some plot clues.
In the first Avatar movie, Quaritch destroyed the Na'vi Soul Tree. A kind of wood elf similar to dandelion seeds was born from the soul tree, which is of great significance to the Na'vi people. "Seed Messenger" may tell the story of the Na'vi people looking for the wood elves under the full moon, and their desire to rebuild the Tree of Souls on Pandora.
Previously, James Cameron had hinted that the Fire Tribe would be introduced in "Avatar 3", which is undoubtedly an intriguing development. The Fire Tribe will become the more evil faction of the Na'vi, bringing an exciting new direction to the "Avatar" movie.
Oona Chaplin has also been confirmed to play Varan, the leader of the Fire Tribe, and may become the villain who will confront Quaritch. In addition, the "Avatar: Water Path" behind-the-scenes revealed that spiders can breathe on Pandora and confirmed that Keely will play an important role in "Avatar 3".
In May 2023, Sigourney Weaver revealed that "Avatar 3" will be reshot, with the reshoots starting in early 2024. Speaking of Cameron, she explained: "He just loves filming. I can't guess at all what we might do, but I think it might just be to go back and shoot some shots that he feels haven't been shot yet."

The second upcoming "Avatar" movie, "Avatar 4", is said to be filmed together with "Avatar 5" and is scheduled to be released in December 2029. The rumored title for Avatar 4 is Avatar: Knights of Turkun, but the filmmakers have not confirmed this. Additionally, most of the original cast is expected to return for the film.
Tulkun first appeared in Avatar 2, where Roark befriended the exiled Tulkun Pekan. The Avatar 4 title could also point to Pekan, as Turkun has deep ties to the Water Tribe.
This is consistent with comments from James Cameron, who hinted at Aqua's importance in the remaining Avatar films. Producer John Landau also explained that Avatar 4 will have a time jump and that parts of the film have already been filmed, reportedly to finish before the teenage actors grow up.
Landau explained:
“The first act [has already been shot]. To be honest, there’s a time jump after the first act [in Avatar 4] and we needed to film what we needed before the kids grow up. "
Although there are not many details about the plot except for the time jump, people who have read the "Avatar 4" script are very surprised. After complaining a bit about studio feedback on his first two films, Cameron told reporters:
"When I turned in the script for Avatar 4, the studio executives, the creative executives who oversee all the movies, gave me I wrote an email and it was like, 'Oh my God.' I said, 'Where are the notes? "I've read the fourth one... It's an incredible story – everyone should be ready for it."
"Avatar 5" 》
"Avatar 5" is expected to be released on December 19, 2031.
Like the third and fourth films in the "Avatar" film series, "Avatar 5" has a rumored title - "Avatar: The Search for Ava", but this has not been confirmed either.
The last "Avatar" movie will be released in December 2031, more than 20 years after the first movie. The title theme refers to the goddess Ava worshiped by the Na'vi, who is said to be the source of life that connects all life forces on Pandora.
This means that Avatar 5 may directly involve Ava, possibly digging into the origins of the goddess on Pandora.
Because "Avatar 5" is still a long time away from release, there are fewer updates about it than "Avatar 3" or "Avatar 4". However, information has now been confirmed that the Na'vi will return to Earth in "Avatar 5".
Kili is one of them, which is crucial to completing Kili and Quaritch's storyline. Keeley, played by Sigourney Weaver, gets to learn more about her mother, Dr. Grace, and find out who her father is.
Returning to Earth might even become a kind of fish-out-of-water story for Querich, as he's now in a Na'vi body and may not adapt, and when he's inevitably ostracized from society, he may get a taste of what he once was Bitter fruit sown.
The "Avatar" movie series leads the story line to Earth, which can mean many unexpected things, from the Na'vi refugees being forced to leave Pandora, to the all-out war during "Avatar 5" and the Na'vi invasion of the earth. While we still have quite a while to wait for the next Avatar movie, there are plenty of exciting things to look forward to in the series over the next five years.
