Marine Jake Sully, played by Sam Worthington, used an Avatar created by the scientists to infiltrate the Na’vi and conquer them. The eventual clash between invader and native residents led to a war that left the characters in the story forever changed.

Fans around the world are rejoicing, and they would surely troop to the theaters once again to watch what become of the paraplegic Jake Sully and his Na’vi partner Neytiri, played by Zoe Saldana.

Reportedly, director/creator James Cameron revealed that they would bring back as many characters as the can, and that the ‘Avatar‘ sequels will be a ‘family saga like ‘The Godfather‘.
