IsF9star Vin Diesel gearing up to join theworld of Avatar? TheFast and Furiousfamily member certainly seemed to suggest so when asked recently about working with director James Cameron, something which Diesel has teased in the past. In a recent interview, Diesel responded to a question regarding whether audiences will see him in any of the many upcomingAvatarsequels, and while he played it coy, he at least confirmed that he and Cameron will indeed “be working together.”
“I have spent time with him, but I have not filmed yet. I love James Cameron. I love James Cameron, and I love the series, and I think it’ssafe to say that we will be working together.”
It’s very hard to ignore the very suggestive “yet” at the end of Diesel’s sentence when referring to theAvatarmovies. While it does not sound likeVin Dieselwill appear in the first sequel,Avatar 2, there will be many more opportunities for him to join the fray, with the action star well-suited to portray either a human soldier or one of the native Na’vi. Of course, it’s also possible that Diesel and Cameron are teaming up for something separate from the world ofAvatar, but does Cameron really have any time to do anything else right now?
Details ofAvatar 2are slowly being revealed, with a new piece of official concept recently released, teasing the underwater world of Pandora.Avatarproducer Jon Landau has previously revealed a few details regarding the direction of the sequel including that the story will focus on “the Sully family and what one does to keep their family together. Jake and Neytiri will have a family in this movie, they are forced to leave their home, they go out and explore the different regions of Pandora, including spending quite a bit of time on the water, around the water, in the water.”
