He included certain scenes in the first film for future story follow-ups. Cameron planned to shoot the sequels back-to-back and to begin work "once the novel is nailed down". The sequels were confirmed as continuing to follow the characters of Jake and Neytiri in December 2009.
James Cameron shot "Avatar: The Way of Water," and the third and fourth "Avatar" films at one time. Cameron shot them this way to avoid the "Stranger Things effect," or child actors' growth spurts.

AVATAR Sequels Shooting Back To Back - AMC Movie News
Is Avatar 3 4 5 already made?
The franchise's third installment is expected to hit theaters in 2025, with Avatar 4 following in 2029 and Avatar 5 in 2031, and that may not be the end of the story. While talking to PEOPLE in February 2024, Cameron said that he already has ideas for even more films in the franchise.
Cameron has the rest of “Avatar 4” and the entirety of “Avatar 5” left to shoot. The third movie was originally going to arrive in 2024, but Disney delayed the franchise and scheduled “Avatar 3” for a Dec. 19, 2025, opening.
It was only when Lo'ak insisted that Neteyam agreed to the rescue. Neteyam risked his life and perished in order to save Lo'ak and Spider from Quaritch. As Jake himself said: "A son for a son". Spider wept for Neteyam as he died as well.
Her father is not a father, her father is another mother, Eywa, the Great Mother, the sentient life force of Pandora itself that exists in all things there, but is rarely understood. So essentially yes, Kiri was born from Eywa just like Anakin Skywalker was allegedly conceived by the Force itself and its midichlorians.
During a press event for the Avatar: The Way of Water digital release, Screen Rant attended a Q&A with producer Jon Landau. He revealed that while filming Avatar: The Way of Water, they also shot Avatar 3 and the first act of Avatar 4. Landau also explained why they needed to film these movies simultaneously.
It's been no secret that James Cameron's sequel would make heavy use of pioneering underwater filming technology. This contributed to why Avatar 2 took so long to make, a necessary endeavor since Avatar: The Way of Water introduced a new Na'vi tribe, the Metkayina, who live around and in Pandora's ocean.
In reality, it would be a further decade before James Cameron's Avatar premiered, and there are several factors behind this extended delay. The primary reason for Avatar's 15-year development is that the technology of the late 1990s simply wasn't good enough to cope with the demands of Cameron's concept.
The release date was again deferred due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and in August 2020, a new release of December 20, 2024, was announced. Another delay was announced on June 13, 2023, this time due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike, pushing the film to December 19, 2025.
In fact, Cameron himself has explained why Avatar 2, Avatar 3, and part of Avatar 4 have been filmed simultaneously in recent years: to avoid the so-called "Stranger Things effect."
Cameron has the rest of “Avatar 4” and the entirety of “Avatar 5” left to shoot. The third movie was originally going to arrive in 2024, but Disney delayed the franchise and scheduled “Avatar 3” for a Dec. 19, 2025, opening.
According to the report, Avatar 3 was titled Avatar: The Seed Bearer, followed by Avatar: The Tulkun Rider and Avatar: The Quest for Eywa for the subsequent films.
Unless that theory is true, Grace was impregnated by someone. Kiri's brothers joke that the scientist Norm could be her father. The movie does not reveal much information about the birth of Kiri. It is unclear whether Kiri was conceived before Grace died and her avatar carried her to term.
She explains that Eywa is so close to her that she can hear Eywa's breath and heartbeat. Compared to her siblings, Kiri adapted much more quickly to the free-diving lifestyle of the Metkayina and experiences little to no trouble staying underwater for long periods of time despite a lack of training.
Augustine's colleague Norm Spellman (Joel David Moore) was the father and Grace conceived Kiri before the end of Avatar before somehow giving birth in her Avatar body. However, the more interesting theory is that Kiri is literally the child of Eywa due to some sort of immaculate conception.
Lo'ak is the fourteen-year-old son of Jake Sully and Neytiri, and one of the main protagonist of “Avatar: The Way of Water”. His rebellious spirit is portrayed by his outfits, garments and hair.
The first reason why Neteyam has four fingers while his siblings all have five fingers might be simple genetics. Since an avatar is a hybrid of Na'vi and human DNA, it's easy to imagine the genes that control the number of digits in the body competing with each other.
Neteyam was only 15 years old when he died during the climax of Avatar 2. He and his younger, more reckless brother Lo'ak were determined to save their symbolic brother Spider, the biological son of the antagonist Miles Quaritch.
The short and easy answer is, No. But, it's important to note that the Avatar franchise has brought dead characters back in the past. The Way of Water brought Quaritch back as a recombinant.
Production on Avatar 3 has almost finished, says James Cameron. The director, who's spent the last four years filming Avatar 3 and 4 back to back, says the third one is “pretty much in the can.”
