There have been reports for a while now that Vin Diesel has joined James Cameron’s sequels of Avatar. Denying the news, the franchise producer of Avatar, Jon Landau has confirmed that Diesel isn’t in the film’s sequels. 

The rumours were ignited 4 years back when Diesel posted a photo with Cameron from the sets of Avatar in 2019. According to a report by Variety, he said, “There is one person in Hollywood I’ve always wanted to work with and learn from, and so, all things come, I guess, to those that wait.” The video inspired speculation that the actor joined the film’s franchise. 

However, Landau confirmed, “Vin was a fan. He came in, visited the set one day to see what we were doing and people took that out of context.” The speculation came up probably after Diesel told Entertainment Tonight that one of the reasons he was “doing Avatar” was his friendship with Zoe Saldana. 

Although Diesel will not be seen in the Avatar franchise, he will be seen in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 and Fast X. He may also reportedly be front and center in the 11th and final Fast and Furious movie.
