Though it seemed we’d seen the last of Stephen Lang’s character in Avatar, on Pandora nothing stays dead, because of some kind of magical jellyfish tree where all your dead relatives watch you get it on. Or something. It’s been a while, but we’ll all soon have the chance to get reacquainted with Avatar’s mythology as well as Lang, as Cameron has confirmed that the gruff character actor will be a part of all three of those next scheduled Avatar movies that Cameron is currently prepping, with plans to shoot them back to back to back. That Lang’s Col. Quaritch would return, despite the events of the first film, is perhaps not surprising, given that Sigourney Weaver (also returning!) has said Cameron has made it clear that “no one ever dies in science fiction” when there is money to be made by repeating a successful formula.
