People from New Corp, which is in possession of 20th Century Fox, believe that the Avatar worldwide will reach fantastic amount of $ 2 billion.

Cameron spoke to channel E at the Producers Guild of America Awards about the story for the sequel:”We just have to come up with a great story, which we haven’t done yet. I have a rough story,” the filmmaker teased. “But you need to make a script, so that might take some time. Don’t start going to buy your tickets.”

Avatar follows former marine Jake Sully who embarks on a journey to distant moon Pandora to join Avatar program and later leads a heroic battle to save a civilization. The flick has been named Best Motion Picture at the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards and aided its director James Cameron to land Best Director gong at the same event.
