Disney’s Animal Kingdom To Open Pandora — The World Of Avatar Next Summer
by Cheryl Rosen /Eight years after James Cameron’s Avatar set a record for the biggest box office in movie history, Disney’s Animal Kingdom will open Pandora — The World of Avatar next summer at Walt Disney World in Florida, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts chairman Bob Chapek announced.
It will include a restaurant called “Satu’li Canteen, with a focus on Na’vi art and cultural items,” and Pongu Pongu, a “special drink location.”
Does it seem like it’s been too long for Avatar to stay popular? Have no fears, Disney is on the case. Four sequels to the movie will begin filming concurrently early in 2017, with the first scheduled for a Christmas 2018 release.
