NEWS: New Concept Art Revealed for Avatar Sequel Shows Oceans of Pandora as Seen on Flight of Passage

The official Twitter account of James Cameron’s Avatar film franchise has released new concept art informing fans that they won’t just be returning to Pandora in the sequel, they’ll be exploring new parts of the vast world…

For fans of Avatar – Flight of Passage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, many of these scenes may seem familiar––and that’s because they are. According to film producer John Landau, instead of exploring new planets, all of the Avatar sequels will seek to explore the planet even further. Avatar 2 will focus on the underwater world of Pandora’s oceans. Some of the creatures featured in the attraction will also make an appearance in the sequel.

As for the new locations, like the large Jupiter-like planet and moons looming in the background, it will be interesting to see if these new locations make it onto new versions of Avatar – Flight of Passage in the future. Much like recent changes to Star Tours for the release of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, the benefit to screen rides is that you can update the footage when things change.

Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana are expected to reprise their roles as Jake Sully and Neytiri, respectively, while new cast members include Kate Winslet, Edie Falco, Michelle Yeoh, and Jemaine Clement.

The second Avatar film is set to release on December 17, 2021.

My enthusiasm for all things Disney all started when my parents took our family to WDW for a vacation. My first trip was at age 13. Since that first time, I have made a trip to WDW almost every year from age 13. As far as I knew there was only one place to vacation! My fascination with WDW began on that first trip. I wanted to know how things at WDW operated and what made it so magical. I wanted to know details like how many people worked there and the length of the monorail track. It is that fascination that fueled my interest in WDW. Each year that my family vacationed at WDW, I learned more about WDW as they built more parks and added more attractions. I am not the average fan; I want to know all the details and I love researching the facts of WDW. I research facts through the Internet, books and DVDs. To me, the best part is to conduct research trip at WDW. After college, my father was transferred to Orlando and I moved with my parents. Seeking employment, I applied for a job at WDW. I passed the first rounds of interviews and was proud to join the Disney family as a security cast member! The job was great. It included Disney-specific training and security training before assuming four duties: driving a security vehicle, standing a post, working in a resort or walking a park or other area. Sometimes I even had special duties like working the Epcot Christmas Processional. I would escort the celebrity guests from backstage to onstage. Interestingly, every cast member is given a WDW fact book monthly to aid in answering guest questions. The pocket book contained great Disney facts that added more fuel for my thirst of Disney facts. Well, all-good things must come to end so we moved back to NJ. In the summer of 2010 I moved back to Florida I am now living in Orlando less then 15 minutes from WDW and living the dream and have fun along the way.
