The sequel will be exploring the fictional underwater world of the planet of Pandora and will be focusing more on the Sullys – while numerous years have passed away and Neytiri and Jake are now parents too.

“Director James Cameron was finally able to crack that challenge – that whole thing that you can’t imitate water, virtually, through performance capture,” Saldaña stated. “That was just a challenge that he had taken upon himself, and it took him years, and he did it. He did it. It’s powerful, it’s compelling.”

Producer for Avatar 2 Jon Landau did reveal the plot of the upcoming film last year:
