"Avatar: Fire and Ash" hit theaters last week, marking the third chapter in James Cameron's planned five-film franchise, which began in 2009 with "Avatar" starring Sam Worthington as Jake Sully, who gets dispatched to Pandora and finds himself torn between following his orders and protecting the world he begins to view as home.
Since then, Cameron has directed two more films in the franchise, including "Avatar: The Way of Water," which saw Jake Sully continue life with his newfound family on Pandora, and now "Avatar: Fire and Ash," which grapples with grief and the family encountering a new Na'vi tribe.

The films have each had critical and box office success, with "Avatar" becoming the highest-grossing movie of all time, securing $2.9 billion at the worldwide box office, and "Avatar: The Way of Water" close behind in third place with $2.3 billion.
So far, "Avatar: Fire and Ash" has grossed over $347 million worldwide.
When Will 'Avatar 4' Be Released?
As mentioned, James Cameron has plans for two more films beyond "Avatar: Fire and Ash", with the currently unnamed "Avatar 4" set for release on December 21, 2029.
This extends the gap between films, with "Avatar: The Way of Water" releasing on December 16, 2022, and "Avatar: Fire and Ash" releasing on December 19, 2025, just three years on.
Now, fans must wait four years to see what happens next, which is a small ask considering the 13-year gap between "Avatar" and "Avatar: The Way of Water".
What Will Happen in 'Avatar 4'?
Plot details for 'Avatar 4' are firmly under wraps, but the story will continue from "Avatar: Fire and Ash".
