James Cameron wants to make the next two Avatar movies himself, but it might take more time than he's able to spend

Cameron has two more Avatar sequels in the works, with Avatar 4 having begun filming ahead of its 2029 release. Avatar 5 is currently in the early stages of development heading into its 2031 premiere. The films will see thefranchise leave Pandora and head to Earth. However, Cameron has teased that the film series could extend past a fifth movie.

James Cameron is currently considering an expansion of the Avatar franchise that would allow the property to truly thrive the way Star Wars has for decades.

The world of the Na'vi might be expanding, per director James Cameron, who opened up about his plans to take the franchise to animated territory.

Speaking to Empire, Cameron said he wants to do his version of The Animatrix, the animated spinoff of the Wachowskis’ Matrix film series. Cameron’s idea for an animated Avatar anthology would “add texture and baroque detail to the world of Avatar” and add “backstory on characters and tangential stuff that happened off-camera within the movies.”

James Cameron says he hopes to expand the 'Avatar' franchise to animation. In a new interview, Cameron, the writer, director and creator of the 'Avatar' films, revealed that he told Disney he wants to make more 'Avatar' stories using animation.

That won't stop the Na'vi family from getting into new adventures, accompanied by Ronal, Tonowari, and their family. Early onto this clip we see new creatures on Pandora, giant ones who fly through the air with the protagonists on their backs. The footage is pretty beautiful, but it's not long before the danger coming with Avatar 3 is showcased.
