Avatar 2’s Massive 13-Year Delay Was Secretly Perfect For The Way Of Water’s Story

Although it took Avatar 2 nearly 13 years to release after the first Avatar movie, its massive delay secretly turned out to be perfect. Serving as the second installment in the Avatar movie franchise, Avatar: The Way of Water further expands the world-building of the original 2009 Avatar movie. While still unfolding on the central planet, Pandora, Avatar 2 adds several new characters to the mix and also brings new depth to the franchise’s fantastical lore by exploring the lives and habitats of other indigenous species and creatures that live on the planet.
