The Collection
Avatar (2009)
Paraplegic Marine Jake Sully is sent to the moon Pandora on a unique mission, but he becomes torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home. This film introduces the Na'vi, the concept of Avatars, and the battle for the Tree of Souls.
Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)
Jake Sully lives with his newfound family formed on the extrasolar moon Pandora. Once a familiar threat returns to finish what was previously started, Jake must work with Neytiri and the army of the Na'vi race to protect their home, fleeing to the oceanic Metkayina clan for refuge.
Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025)
The Sully family encounters the "Ash People," an aggressive volcanic clan of Na'vi led by Varang. As the war with the RDA escalates, Jake and Neytiri must navigate this new, dangerous culture while facing the return of old enemies in a landscape of fire and magma.
Avatar 4 (2029)
Following a significant time jump, the scope of the saga expands. The film is expected to explore the consequences of the long war and potentially move the narrative beyond Pandora, setting the stage for the final confrontation.
Avatar 5 (2031)
In the planned conclusion to the epic saga, Neytiri and the Na'vi are expected to travel to Earth to confront the "Sky People" on their home turf, bringing the conflict full circle and determining the fate of both worlds.
