Kate Winslet Signs On to One of Endless ’Avatar’ Sequels

Hey, remember Avatar? That movie everyone in the entire world saw almost 10 years ago and no one has said a word about since? Well, it’s finally getting a sequel, and Deadline is reporting that the sequel will reunite director James Cameron with Titanic star Kate Winslet. Personally, I would rather see a sequel to Titanic where Kate Winslet’s Rose is a passenger on another famous boat crash. Like maybe she’s the sole survivor of the wreck of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald.

“Kate and I have been looking for something to do together for 20 years, since our collaboration on Titanic, which was one of the most rewarding of my career,” Cameron said. “I can’t wait to see her bring the character of Ronal to life.”

Just have lunch with someone like a normal person, Cameron, you don’t need to keep putting everyone you know in a movie.

Deadline had earlier reported that Cameron has a billion dollar budget to film four sequels to Avatar. It’s been eight years since Avatar was in theaters, and has anyone watched or even thought about Avatar since it left theaters? It was the highest-grossing film of all time, and the biggest mark it left on cinema is that the M. Night Shyamalan adaptation of the Nickelodeon cartoon had to be called The Last Airbender.

Do you remember the stories of people who were borderline suicidal because they would never be able to go to Pandora after seeing Avatar? Did you even remember that the planet they were on was called Pandora and they were looking for an element called unobtanium? It’s like everyone showed up to film the movie and Cameron was too embarrassed to admit he had forgotten to Control+F the script to replace the placeholder names he used and just decided to roll with it because he’d spent so much money on the cameras already.
