Avatar star Sam Worthington addresses the future of the hit franchise after the release of Avatar: Fire and Ash. Though plans have long been in place for a fourth and fifth installment, director James Cameron has suggested recently that he's prepared to walk away from the franchise should this next movie not perform.

Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Worthington addresses Cameron's comments, reinforcing the idea that more Avatar is far from guaranteed. According to the Jake Sully actor, Fire and Ash has a strong sense of finality to it. Check out his comment below:

"I think Jim is right. You're after a movie that...Your hope is that it connects. And it's very nerve-wracking when you hand a movie over. And we'll see. This movie, Jake Sully said at the end of Avatar 2, 'This is where we make our stand,' so I think we know what's coming. To me, this was always the final battle, the final showdown.

"I know Jim has ideas for where the saga continues, but I also know he's sort of rounded off these two movies. They were one movie when he first wrote it, and I think his intention was to finish this with everything he's got and see how it goes."

More to come...
