Huraah! Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana have been roped into reprise their characters for the next three sequels of 'Avatar'.

To go in production in October this year, the trio-sequel will be shot back-to-back-to-back by James Cameron. Josh Friedman, duo Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, and Shane Salerno have been roped in to do the screenplays.

The first actor to come aboard for all three new movies was Stephen Lang, who played thecharacter of mad Marine Colonel Quaritch in the 2009 prequel. Given his character died in the first film, it will be fascinating to see how Cameron resurrects and keeps him alive in all the three sequels.

While the plot details is kept under wraps, it's learned that Jake Sully and Neytiri, the characters played by Worthington and Saldana, will have kids.

Said Cameron: "Jake Sully is a rare combination of passion, strength, street smarts and soul, which requires a lot from an actor. Sam brought to the role a combination of sensitivity, vulnerability and strength. Zoe captured every aspect of the character I envisioned, bringing to Neytiri a mix of delicacy, fierceness and incredible physicality. I am beyond pleased they'll be returning with us to Pandora."

Cameron and Jon Landau will co-produce the sequels under their banner Lightstorm Entertainment.

The first 'Avatar' sequel will open at the theaters in December 2016, the second to follow on December 2017 and the third a year later.
