Filmmaker James Cameron has shared that the pre-production of his upcoming "Avatar" sequels was not as smooth as it seemed. The director told author Marianne Williamson that he almost fired his "Avatar" sequel writers` room, which is pitching new ideas for the upcoming movies, reports aceshowbiz.com.
"When I sat down to write the sequels, I knew there were going to be three at the time, and eventually it turned into four," Cameron said. He added: "I put together a group of writers and said, `I don`t want to hear anybody`s new ideas or anyone`s pitches until we have spent some time figuring out what worked on the first film, what connected, and why it worked."
