Will There Be an Avatar 4?
Avatar 4 is officially confirmed as part of James Cameron's five-film Avatar saga. Announced alongside Avatar 3 (Fire and Ash) in December 2024, the project advances the Na'vi storyline post-Pandora conflicts, with principal photography already underway during back-to-back shoots for sequels 3-5. Disney and Lightstorm Entertainment locked the commitment after Avatar: The Way of Water's $2.3 billion haul, ensuring production momentum despite Cameron's rigorous VFX timelines. ScreenTime on X reports James Cameron confirms Avatar 4 is now filming.
Avatar 4 Release Date
Avatar 4 arrives December 21, 2029, in IMAX 3D and premium formats worldwide. The date stems from Disney's 2024 slate reveal, spacing four years after Fire and Ash (December 19, 2025) to accommodate motion capture, performance revisions, and unprecedented CGI rendering over 10 million hours per film. No delays announced as of late 2025; Cameron cited parallel filming efficiencies. Standard theatrical rollout expected, with midnight premieres and extended runtime around 3 hours, mirroring predecessors. Hollywood Handle on X reports Avatar 4 has begun filming, set for theaters on December 21, 2029.
