For years, the endless delays of the Avatar sequels became a running joke in Hollywood, with James Cameron repeatedly pushing back release dates as he meticulously planned out not just one, but multiple sequels.
Despite finally releasing Avatar: The Way of Water in 2022—13 years after the original—Disney has now shifted the entire release schedule again, with Avatar 3 now set for 2025, Avatar 4 for 2028, and Avatar 5 not arriving until 2031.
This means the final film will debut a staggering 22 years after the first, raising questions about whether Cameron, now in his late 60s, will see the franchise through to its conclusion.
However, given his passion and track record for groundbreaking filmmaking, fans remain hopeful that he will bring his full vision to life and deliver more cinematic spectacles in the years to come.
