After 13 years and numerous delays, 20th Century Studios has finally released a glimpse into James Cameron's Avatar 2, due Dec. 16. This marks the long-awaited sequel to the highest-grossing film of all time. The sequel's official title is Avatar: The Way Of Water.

After being re-released last year in China, the first Avatar overtook Avengers: Endgame as the most lucrative film of all time (according to ticket sales) when its revenue surpassed US$2.8bil (RM12.27bil) globally. Its original run in the United States was unprecedented, with the film thriving in theatres for over 10 months.
