Avatar

Whilst Avatar continues to smash box office records, stories are beginning to emerge about the future of the franchise. Whilst a sequel is no doubt inevitable it will also take several years to come to the screen.

Notwithstanding this, it seems we will be seeing new Avatar material much sooner than this, in the form of a novel written by Cameron himself.

Speaking to MTV news, producer Jon Landau indicated that the novel would be a 'big epic story that fills in a lot of things' including the death of Jake's brother and how main villain Quaritch ended up on Pandora.

The producer also indicated that other material originally intended for the movie, but cut for time, may make an appearance either in the novel, or another medium such as comic books.
