Saga Avatar

Avatar is the name of the future cinematographic saga created, written, produced and directed by 'Titanic's director James Cameron.

The development of the main story began in 1994 and it was even planned to be released in 1999.

'Avatar' is the highest grossing movie of all time, it has been the first movie to gross over 2 billion dollars worldwide.
