Some crew members can be seen from the photos, but each staff member maintained a "safe distance", after all, the crew members were still in quarantine.

Avatar 2, directed by James Cameron, will be released in North America on December 17, 2021. The next three sequels are expected to be released in 2023, 2025, and 2027.
