Yahoo News Does Avatar 2 FINALLY have a release date?
James Cameron’s ‘Avatar 2’ may finally have a release date.
The long-awaited ‘Avatar’ sequel seems to have finally landed an official release date, as 20th Century Fox reveals a handful of dates in its upcoming calendar.
According to Exhibitor Relations, the studio confirmed a number of upcoming films, including two new Marvel movies and a date for Kingsman: ‘The Golden Circle’. And while ‘Avatar’ isn’t mentioned directly, it seems James Cameron has a new movie on the horizon.
“UNTITLED FOX/LIGHTSTORM FILM will drop December 21, 2018,” they revealed.

But what does that mean?
Lightstorm is James Cameron’s production company… and with 20th Century Fox expected to distribute the upcoming ‘Avatar’ sequel, it seems a likely match that this ‘untitled’ movie will turn out to be ‘Avatar 2’.
After all, Fox has already said that ‘Avatar 2’ would likely drop around Christmas 2018.
Will it actually meet this new opening date?
Well… that’s another question entirely. ‘Avatar 2’ was originally expected back in 2014, so an official release date is still no guarantee at this stage. Sure, the ‘Avatar’ sequel is going to come out eventually. But 2018 might still be a bit optimistic. And with 5 sequels apparently in the works (all with tentative release years), it looks as though Cameron has a lot of work ahead of him.
As well as Cameron’s ‘Avatar’ sequel, Fox also set some interesting Marvel dates as well as the previously-mentioned ‘Kingsman’ sequel (which has moved from 16 June 16 2017 to 6 October 2017).
The Marvel movies have been slated for 2 November 2018 and 14 February 2019… which will debut alongside the previously announced Marvel flicks on 3 March 2018 and 29 June 2018. Of course, one of those slots will likely go to ‘Deadpool 2’ with another picked up by the ‘New Mutants’ project and yet-another ‘X-Men’ sequel.
Will they try another ‘Fantastic Four’ movie?
For now, we’ll have to wait and see.
But at this rate, we might see it before Cameron gets around to ‘Avatar 2’.
The untitled Fox/Lightstorm film heads to cinemas on 21 December 2018.
