The Oscar-winning director has revealed to Entertainment Weekly that he will likely hold a press conference for Avatar 4 and Avatar 5 if the Avatar franchise ends with the third instalment. He hinted that the release of 4th and 5th instalment depends upon the financial success of Avatar: Fire & Ash.

He told EW, "I don't know if the saga goes beyond this point. I hope it does," adding, "But, you know, we prove that business case every time we go out... If we don't get to make 4 and 5, for whatever reason, I'll hold a press conference and I'll tell you what we were gonna do. How's that?"

Some reports suggested that the 4th instalment could come around December 2029.
