James Cameron defends gap between sequels.


James Cameron has been chatting about the 11 year gap between Avatar and Avatar 2, and why he's not too worried...

By the time Avatar 2 finally arrives in cinemas at the end of 2020, it'll be 11 years since the release of the original film. A film that, of course, went on to become the biggest of all time at the box office. But one that's still take its time to get its follow-up.

Production starts on the sequels – and there are four of them planned, remember – this summer, and writer/director James Cameron has been addressing the sizeable gap between the first two movies.

Turns out he’s not worried. "It was a seven year gap between The Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day, seven year gap between Alien and Aliens", he reminded CNN.

"It’s going to be obviously more like a ten year gap between Avatar and Avatar 2."
