Official: Avatar Sequel Delayed Until 2017

[Jachyra]

Well unsurprisingly, the first sequel has been delayed until 2017.

I mention unsurprisingly because according to a member of Weta, they haven't even begun working on performance capture underwater and since all 3 movies will be filmed together...

Anyway, JC now has officially announced the delay:

The first had been due in late 2016, but he said the writing process had proved to be "very involved" and that the initial target date was probably too ambitious.

"There's a layer of complexity in getting the story to work as a saga across three films that you don't get when you're making a stand-alone film".

Here's the link.

I usually finish my posts with "Cheers!" but... not this time
