“Avatar: Fire and Ash” opened with $345 million in worldwide sales, according to studio estimates Sunday, notching the second-best global debut of the year and potentially putting James Cameron on course to set yet more blockbuster records.
Turns out I was wrong, Lightstorm Entertainment is who produces the film and owns the Avatar production technology, and that company is owned by James Cameron.
It’s Fox who does the distribution, and Fox’s parent company is of course Disney.
So Cameron is just waiting for it to be an actual success before announcing the sequels (although they seem to already have release dates.)
Avatar 2 & 3 shot together (or back to back) and that’s the same plan for Avatar 4 & 5, so waiting a few weeks isn’t really a big deal. Plus various planning is already underway, so it’ll really just be an “announcement” that everyone expects.
