James Cameron says he will direct all of the "Avatar" movies himself


"Avatar: The Way of Water" grossed USD 2.3 billion worldwide in 2022
13 Aug - After previously saying that he might let other directors helm movies number four and five, James Cameron is now changing his mind, saying that he will be directing all of his "Avatar" movies.

In a recent interview with THR, the filmmaker was asked whether he will be personally directing "Avatar 4" and "Avatar 5", to which he responded, "Sure. Absolutely. I mean, they're going to have to stop me. I got plenty of energy, love doing what I'm doing. Why would I not?"

"And they're written, by the way. I just reread both of them about a month ago. They're cracking stories. They've got to get made. Look, if I get hit by a bus and I'm in an iron lung, somebody else is going to do it," he said.

It is noted that in 2022, Cameron said that filming the Avatar movies was an all-consuming process and that there are other projects that he wants to make.

"I think eventually over time, I don't know if that's after three or after four, I'll want to pass the baton to a director that I trust to take over, so I can go do some other stuff that I'm also interested in," he said.

"Or maybe not. I don't know," he added.

Meanwhile, the third Avatar film, now officially titled "Avatar: Fire and Ash", is set for release in December 2025.
