James Cameron has been working on Avatar 2 & 3 ever since the first film hit it big, but it’s only fairly recently he got properly busy on the script (he’d spent most of the time getting the technical side ready). Now he’s decided to draft in a little help, as The Wrap reports that he’s hired Josh Friedman to help polish the screenplay for the second movie.
Friedman has a history of following on from Cameron’s work, as he created TV’s Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (a show it was though Cameron wasn’t too thrilled about when it started airing).
Nobody has confirmed the story yet, but it’s not a surprising development as it’s known Cameron brought in help on the first film, and with Fox still pushing for a later 2015 release for Avatar 2, they need to get the screenplay ready as soon as possible, as filming will have to begin relatively quickly.
