The makers of this upcoming sequel have developed new technology in order to film performance capture scenes underwater, a feat that has never been accomplished ever before. This led to some significant delays in order to allow the crew to have more time to work on the writing, preproduction, and visual effects. The film will go on to prove the pinnacle of filmmaking and the technological advances it has made in the process.

Avatar: The Way of Water is scheduled to release theatrically worldwide on 16 December 2022. It will be followed by three more sequels which will be released respectively on 20 December 2024, 18 December 2026, and 22 December 2028.
