'''''Avatar 3''''' is a planned sequel to ''[[Avatar 2]]'', and its aimed release date was Christmas 2015,<ref>http://www.starkinsider.com/2010/10/james-cameron-on-avatar-2-environment-reaching-ocean-bottom-video.html</ref> instead now releasing in Christmas 2020.<ref name="THR"/> It will be shot back to back with ''Avatar 2''.<ref>http://screenrant.com/james-cameron-avatar-2-3-sandy-83703/</ref> It will be the third instalment in the planned [[Avatar (film series)|''Avatar'' series]]. [[James Cameron]] has already hinted that no sequel will actually have "Avatar" in the title, as [[Jake Sully]] is no longer an [[Avatar (species)|avatar]] at the end of the first film; "Avatar 3" is most likely just a temporary title. <ref>http://www.scificool.com/wait-there-will-be-more-navi-in-avatar-2-or-whatever-it-ends-up-being-called/</ref>
 
 
==Plot==
 
On April 20, 2010 Cameron confirmed that ''Avatar 2'' will take place in [[Pandora|Pandora's]] oceans and that ''Avatar 3'' will explore more of the [[Alpha Centauri System]]. <ref>http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=65366 Avatar 3 will explore Alpha Centauri's star system.</ref> It is intended that the plot be able to stand alone, though it will form part of a meta-narrative that extends from ''Avatar 2'' to ''[[Avatar 4|4]]''.<ref name="THR"/>
 
 
==Production==
 
After Cameron confirmed the sequel, he confirmed that the sequels would be filmed back-to-back, and be released in a lapsus of one year in between: ''“I am in the process of writing the next two ''Avatar'' films now. We are planning to shoot them together and [edit them in post-production] together, and we will probably release them not quite back to back, but about a year apart.”'' <ref>http://screenrant.com/avatar-sequels-release-dates-sandy-97896/ James Cameron Announces Avatar 2 & 3 Release Dates</ref> In October 2013, Sam Worthington confirmed that the three sequels would start shooting in fall 2014, <ref>http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/10/18/sam-worthington-says-avatar-sequels-will-shoot-fall-of-2014</ref> however Weaver later stated that her shoots would not take place until fall 2015.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=27&v=-3_o67a1wY4</ref>
 
 
When asked about his involvement with the ongoing franchise in April 2015, [[James Horner]] stated that he would stay with it through its entire run "If I last that long".<ref>http://www.slashfilm.com/james-cameron-more-avatar-sequels/</ref> Tragically, James Horner died unexpectedly in a plane crash that June.<ref>http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-33235271</ref>
 
 
The film was delayed by six months in 2016, in part due to a scheduling conflict between [[Avatar 2]] and ''Star Wars- Episode VIII''<ref>https://www.inverse.com/article/10520-avatar-2-delayed-from-december-2017-won-t-go-up-against-star-wars</ref>
