Cameron: Momentum Building for ‘Avatar’ Sequel(s)

The “Avatar” director says first he’ll novelize the films; may shoot two sequels at once

James Cameron tells MTV's movies blog that momentum is gathering for a sequel — or sequels — to "Avatar," but first he wants to finish a novel based on the films.

Cameron also said he's considering shooting two sequels simultaneously, a practice that's become more common since the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

"I never had a chance to get the novel done while we were making the movie, and I always intended to. I didn't want to do a cheesy novelization, where some hack comes in and kind of makes s–t up," Cameron said. "I wanted to do something that was a legitimate novel that was inside the characters' heads and didn't have the wrong culture stuff, the wrong language stuff, all that."
