Avatar 2 To Delay Indefinitely, Confirms James Cameron

It was recently when the cast and crew of the highly anticipated movie Avatar 2 headed New Zealand to resume shoot and the movie was all set to bring the action on December 2021. But, such has been the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which has not only resulted in movies that were about to come out being delayed but movies ways into the future needing to be pushed back too and Avatar 2 is one of them. ## Responding to the delay, James Cameron, the director of Avatar, today (July 24) confirmed that bringing the movie on December next year will no longer be possible as the coronavirus pandemic has prevented him and his team from recommencing most of the visual production work on stages in Los Angeles, which he described as being "just as critical" to the Avatar movies as the live-action work. ## He continued in a statement shared on Twitter, "Prior to the COVID-19, everything was on track to bring you the first sequel in December of 2021. Unfortunately, due to the impact that the pandemic has had on our schedule, it is no longer possible for us to make that date.## There is no one more disappointed about this delay than me. But I am buoyed by the incredible performances of our cast and the extraordinary work that Weta Digital is doing bringing the world of Pandora and the characters of the film to life". ## The director also added in his statement that he is "thankful for the support" he is receiving from Disney Studios as well as to the fans for their love and support over the years. While the wait for the sequel has now one more year longer, the filmmaker promises to deliver the end result. ## Read the full statement -## A message from James Cameron.Irayo, Na'vi Nation. Stay safe. 💙 pic.twitter.com/Uwi2J6xF4k— Avatar (@officialavatar) July 23, 2020 ## Now, with Avatar to has been pushed back to 16 December 2022, the next three sequels of the movie have also been delayed. Avatar 3 will now release on 20 December 2024 followed by Avatar 4 on 18 December 2026, and Avatar 5 on 22 December 2028. If these dates stick, it will be quite crazy that the film franchise will be completed in nearly 20 years from its first release which was in 2009 that took the world by storm. ## Stay tuned...

India Cricket Team With An All-Rounder Like Ben Stokes Will Be Unbeatable, Feels Irfan Pathan

In the latest ICC rankings, England's all-rounder Ben Stokes dethrones West Indies captain Jason Holder to become the number 1 all-rounder in Test cricket. Since the world cup final last year, Stokes has been in a different form and has played some of the remarkable knocks including the title-winning 84 against New Zealand in the final of the World Cup 2019 at the Lord's.## However, his knock in the final was just a glimpse of his sheer talent. In the 3rd Test of the Ashes Series 2019, his knock of 136* helped England win the test from nowhere. In fact, he added 76 runs with Jack Leach for the last wicket in which, Leach's contribution was just one run, talks a lot about his dominance on the Aussie bowlers.## And now, as the cricket resumes after a long break because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Stokes also back to his usual best. His all-round performance against West Indies in the second Test at Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester not only helped England to squire the series but also led him to the top of ICC's latest all-rounder' ranking. ## Stokes' all-round ability seems to have impressed former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan who feels Team India is lacking a player like Stokes who could perform anywhere and in any condition. Pathan, who himself was a brilliant all-rounder for India, said in a tweet that if India team has a player like Ben Stokes it will be unbeatable anywhere in the world. ## Indian cricket will be unbeatable anywhere in the world if they have a match winning all rounder like @benstokes38 #matchwinner— Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) July 21, 2020 ## Irfan Pathan played for India for almost nine years and some of the memorable performances. In 2006 against Pakistan, Pathan dismissed the players like Salman Butt, Younis Khan, and Mohammad Yousuf in three consecutive deliveries and became the first and the only bowler to-date to pick a hat-trick in the first over of a Test match which has been the highlight of his career. ## Pathan was also the part of the Indian team that won the inaugural T20 World Cup in 2007 and the Champions Trophy in 2013. Irfan played 173 matches across all three formats and took 301 wickets in those matches. On 4 January 2020, the 35-year-old all-rounder announced his retirement from all forms of cricket. ## Stay tuned...
