Disney has officially screened the first Avatar 2 trailer to a select few audiences and given it an official title.
Avatar 2's producer, Jon Landau, was present at this year's CinemaCon to present the film's first trailer for the Disney panel. Landau confirmed that the Avatar sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, will come out in December, as previously announced. Landau also explained that all four of the previously announced sequels are "standalone" movies. Finally, Landau adds that Disney plans on re-releasing the original Avatar in cinemas on September 23.
2009's Avatar is the highest-grossing film in history with $2.8 billion made at the global box office and it appears that Disney wants to keep it that way.
According to The Way of Water's director, James Cameron, the team "wanted to push the limits of what theaters can do," effectively encouraging audiences to watch the sequel in theaters once it premieres later this year.
