Released in 2009, director\u00a0James Cameron<\/a>\u2019s film\u00a0Avatar\u00a0became the first movie to officially gross more than\u00a0$2 billion. Then it took him thirteen years to get a sequel into theatres, so it wasn\u2019t clear if the follow-up was going to be able to replicate that success. But then, sure enough,\u00a0Avatar: The Way of Water\u00a0also grossed more than $2 billion, paving the way for not only\u00a0Avatar 3, or\u00a0Avatar: Fire and Ash,\u00a0(which is scheduled to reach theatres on\u00a0December 19, 2025<\/strong>) but also\u00a0Avatar 4\u00a0and\u00a0Avatar 5\u00a0\u2013 which will be released on\u00a0December 21, 2029<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0December 19, 2031<\/strong>, respectively.\u00a0Empire<\/a> has been giving Avatar: Fire and Ash extensive coverage in the build-up to the film\u2019s release, and their latest report has unveiled a new image of the characters Quaritch and Spider! You can check it out right here:<\/p>\n

Cameron crafted these sequels with a writers room that consisted of Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver (who worked on\u00a0The Way of Water\u00a0and\u00a0Fire and Ash), Josh Friedman (who was assigned\u00a0to write\u00a0Avatar 4), and Shane Salerno (assigned to write\u00a0Avatar 5). The cast of\u00a0Avatar: Fire and Ash\u00a0includes Sam Worthington, Zoe Salda\u00f1a, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Giovanni Ribisi, Kate Winslet, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Brendan Cowell, Jemaine Clement, Britain Dalton, Trinity Jo-Li Bliss, Jack Champion, Bailey Bass, Filip Geljo, Dileep Rao, Matt Gerald, David Thewlis, and Oona Chaplin, who takes on the role of Varang, leader of the antagonistic Ash Clan. Payakan, the space-whale \/ tulkun, also plays a part in the new sequel.<\/p>\n

Stephen Lang and Jack Champion reprise the roles of the villainous Miles Quaritch and his estranged son Spider, who reconnect in the new film. Lang told Empire, \u201cThey reconnect out of necessity. Their connection is not a solo connection. There are times when everybody comes together on some level. But, when enemies cooperate, you can be sure betrayal is just around the corner. \u2026 Spider confuses Quaritch. But Quaritch wants clarity. There is something about Spider that Quaritch really loves \u2014 not a word we associate with him. I think respect and admiration really develop in spades, as well as animosity and manipulation. The relationship will deepen \u2014 for better or worse.\u201d Champion told Empire, \u201c(Spider) feels very conflicted. His \u2018dad\u2019 is reborn into this Na\u2019vi form and still as evil as ever, if not more so, and he still felt he had to save him. You see that guilt play out, and the evolution of Spider trying to figure out where he belongs.\u201c<\/p>\n

Cameron has said that he also has ideas for a potential\u00a0Avatar 6\u00a0and\u00a07<\/a>, but they\u2019ll only be made if there\u2019s still a demand for the franchise. \u201cThey\u2019ll be just far enough apart that they remain events, hopefully, in the lives of fans, of people who want to follow us, but not so far apart that it\u2019s like there\u2019s a generational difference between one movie.\u00a0We\u2019re fortunate we survived that, right? We got over that hurdle. So now we believe it\u2019s going to come at the right pacing.\u201c In the meantime, he\u2019s also planning Ghosts of Hiroshima<\/a> and The Devils<\/a>.<\/p>\n
