James Cameron To Lower Costs By Setting Next ‘Avatar’ Entirely In Pandora Studio Apartment

LOS ANGELES-In a desperate attempt to lower the production budget, director James Cameron confirmed Tuesday that the next Avatar film would be set entirely in a Pandora studio apartment. Look, you can't always get a blank check to do all the motion capture and underwater sets that you want, so I decided that the next chapter will focus on the modest but comfortable studio apartment Jake and Neytiri move into near the remains of the Hometree," said the filmmaker, who explained that fan-favorite Payakan, a massive whale-like creature that made appearances in Avatar: The Way Of Water and Avatar: Fire And Ash, would relocate to the family's bathtub for the remainder of the franchise. I'm not getting any younger, and if painting Sam Worthington blue and shooting the whole thing on my iPhone means I can secure funding by tomorrow, so be it. Don't worry, your favorite villains are still very much on the board, and without spoiling too much, Varang has ventured off from the Mangkwan Clan to become a brutal and unforgiving superintendent constantly botching repairs in the Sully home." Cameron went on to reveal that he would further be reducing the film's budget by marketing the whole thing himself with flyers.
