James Cameron’s ‘Avatar’ Sequels Will Film In Manhattan Beach, CA

So why are we reporting on a real estate deal? Well, apparently the studio where Cameron shot the first film is currently under renovations and, without a new home, the sequels were in danger of possibly being delayed. Now, that won’t be the case. Read more after the break.

Lightstorm also won’t be the only tenant at the MBS Media Campus in Manhattan Beach to make big blockbuster movies. Marvel Studios is currently a tenant and shot much of Iron Man 2 and Thor in the same location.

Last we heard, Cameron was still writing the scripts to his sequels – and talking about the future of cinema – but when you are the “head MFer in charge,” as he sometimes calls himself, you have to make sure you have office space too – and a lot of it at that. You are making two sequels to the highest grossing film of all time, after all.
