‘Avatar 2’ Gets Its Title, Along With a 3D Teaser Trailer

After years of suspense, Disney unveiled the first trailer for James Cameron’s Avatar sequel, also giving the movie an official title. Now known as Avatar: The Way of Water, the 20th Century Studios sci-fi adventure releases overseas starting December 14 and heads to North America on December 16.

Producer Jon Landau came in from New Zealand to make the presentation on Avatar 2.

“The journey across all four movies will create a connected saga,” said Landau, “To achieve our goals, we need a strong partnership with you and the studio…an end-to-end community.”

Cameron beamed and sympathized with exhibition about their closure during the pandemic, but he’s delivering something at the end of the year that must be seen in theaters.

The trailer has been pegged to run exclusively in cinemas on Marvel’s Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness, which rolls out next week, beginning May 4 internationally and May 6 domestically. That drew applause in the room. The trailer will then go online a week later.

The logline on the movie: Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) lives with his newfound family formed on the planet of Pandora. Once a familiar threat returns to finish what was previously started, Jake must work with Neytiri (Zoe Saldana) and the army of the Na’vi race to protect their planet.
