James Cameron has spoken frequently about his intention to turn his mega-hit Avatar into a trilogy. Now, according to the director himself speaking at the PGA Awards on Saturday, those two sequels have release dates.

Cameron tells EW, “I am in the process of writing the next two Avatar films now. We are planning to shoot them together and post them together, and we will probably release them not quite back to back, but about a year apart. Christmas ’14 and ’15 is the current plan.” Of course, it’s probably best to take those release dates with a grain of salt, since the first Avatar had several release dates before its December 2009 release. Still, now fans know that they’ll have to wait at least three more years for a return to Pandora.

Cameron also notes that we’ll see some familiar faces return. “Basically, if you survived the first film, you get to be in the second film, at least in some form,” say the director. One thing’s for sure: some percentage of the presumably-massive Avatar sequel gross will go to charity. “Fox has partnered with me to donate a chunk of the profits to environmental causes that are at the heart of the Avatar world,” says the director. “I didn’t want to make more Avatar movies without a grander plan in place.”

詹姆斯·卡梅隆(James Cameron)最近向《娛樂周刊》(EW)表示，《阿凡達(dá)》(Avatar)的兩部續(xù)集中將會(huì)有很多第一部里的老面孔回歸。他說：“基本上，只要你在第一集里活了下來，就會(huì)在第二部里出現(xiàn)，至少是以某種方式出現(xiàn)。” 此前（去年2月）卡梅隆還透露，由西格妮·韋弗(Sigourney Weaver)扮演的格蕾絲博士并沒有死，她也將以某種方式出現(xiàn)在續(xù)集里。

另外，熱衷于環(huán)保的卡梅隆還和20世紀(jì)福克斯公司商定，將把《阿凡達(dá)》續(xù)集賺來的票房拿出一部分捐給環(huán)保項(xiàng)目。

目前卡梅隆正在創(chuàng)作《阿凡達(dá)2、3》(Avatar 23)的劇本，這兩部影片將一同拍攝、一起后期制作，然后分別在2024年12月上映和2024年12月上映。
