Sam Worthington Calls 'Avatar 2' a Family Saga

HaydnSpurrell HaydnSpurrell Sam Worthington (Hacksaw Ridge, Avatar) has spoken with We Got This Covered about Avatar 2 production, and has given some new details on what we can expect from the character of Jake Sully in the (not so?) anticipated sequel to 2009's box office hit.

"They’re going to be shooting concurrently,” said Worthington. “The plan is to have some time in between, I think, but these things are always ambiguous until they start. We’re still set to start in the summer, though. James needed time to perfect the scripts. Whenever he says jump I go because he’s the man. I’ve read all the scripts, they’re great."

Worthington revealed that the film takes place years after the original film and will focus on his own children. "This is going to be Jake eight years later, and he’s got a family now. This film is going to be like nothing you’ve ever seen. The world is bigger than the first one, but essentially, it’s a movie about family. Jake will still have that essence of a kid seeing the world for the first time, but he’s been living in the world for a while now, so what’s this world he’s seeing now for the first time? The film will explore that within this family dynamic.”

James Cameron recently confirmed that the scripts are done and filming on motion-capture will begin in the coming months. The release dates for the films are as follows: Avatar 2 in December 2018, Avatar 3, in December 2020, Avatar 4 in 2022, and Avatar 5 in December 2023. We'll see if that pans out as 20th Century Fox no doubt hopes.
