Thirteen years later, Cameron, his production company Lightstorm Entertainment and Wētā have returned audiences to the world of Pandora with Avatar: The Way of Water, the first of four planned sequels in the franchise. It's once again a photorealistic game changer, with awe-inspiring CGI feats to put the superhero movie industrial complex to shame. And, according to Jon Landau, Cameron's producing partner on the Avatar franchise – as well as on Titanic and Alita: Battle Angel – the course of this instalment was charted shortly after the original film's release.
