Superheroes have a lot on their plates already, but Jim Cameron wants them to be more responsible partners and parents.
James Cameron, the director of Avatar: The Way of Water, joins the ranks of Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Denis Villeneuve, and Ridley Scott as directors who have something to say about the superhero genre.
The Academy Award-winning director is currently making his rounds on the press tour for his long-awaited sequel to 2009’s Avatar, which is the highest-grossing film of all time. With three sequels to the film already waiting in the wings (set to star Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldaña reprising their roles as Jake and Neytiri), Cameron is ready to show off his big-budget franchise.
The Avatar franchise faces some competition with other massive blockbusters, mainly the dominance of superhero movies from the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the DC Extended Universe, which have created a fan following that continues to grow as they experiment within the confines of the genre.
