In een interview met ComingSoon.net heeft producent Jon Landau zich uitgesproken over de druk die op de makers rust om Avatar 2 te draaien. Wanneer we de sequel precies mogen verwachten, is nog niet helemaal duidelijk (volgens IMDb in 2014). Maar Landau zei wel het volgende:
"Look, I think one of the things that we have been successful at is that the most pressure we feel is our own pressure. I think that's true as we make a movie, whether it be 'Titanic' or 'Avatar.' Our pressure about an 'Avatar' sequel is self-imposed. We've always said that if the public wanted a sequel that we would do a sequel. That having been said, in my opinion, Jim has done two sequels in his career, and both times, he has at least equaled if not surpassed the original movie. We're only going to do it when we have a piece of material, a script, that we believe will be at least as entertaining and unique as the first movie was."
"Not only that, but the hard part is out of the way. We figured out how to do it, and our goal in the next one is to do it more cost-effectively and more time-efficiently, and we have kept on a team of our technical staff who is working right now on Gen 2 of what we did, but with all the experience that we've had. We kept them on, and they're working for us right now."
