James Cameron's Avatar sequel has followed in its predecessor's footsteps and become a record-setting blockbuster in theaters. But do you still need to go to movie theaters to watch Avatar: The Way of Water?

We've got everything you need to know about how to watch Avatar: The Way of Water right now.

How to watch Avatar: The Way of Water in movie theaters

To answer our earlier question — yes, you're going to need to go to the movie theaters to watch Avatar: The Way of Water, as the movie is playing exclusively in theaters. Moviegoers are going to have multiple options on how they want to watch The Way of Water, as it is going to be shown in standard 2D, 3D and, where available, IMAX.

To find out when and where Avatar: The Way of Water is playing near you, check out your local movie theaters' websites or use a resource like Fandango, which shows you all the movies playing, and where, in your area.

Love going to the movies but not a fan of how expensive movie tickets have become? One solution could be movie theater subscription and membership deals. Offered by many US and UK movie theater chains, consumers can sign up to get free/discounted tickets or a monthly allotment of tickets for a set price, as well as deals on other movie-going necessities, like concessions.

Is Avatar: The Way of Water streaming?

The official streaming service release date of Avatar: The Way of Water has been announced, and it's Wednesday, June 7.

As you'd imagine the movie will land on Disney Plus but in the US it'll also be available on Max, formerly HBO Max, along with lots of bonus content.

If you don't have either streaming service, the movie is also available to buy or rent digitally at home.

Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Stephen Lang and Sigourney Weaver all return from Avatar (though not all in the same role), along with new additions to the cast in Kate Winslet, Cliff Curtis, Britain Dalton, Bailey Bass and Jack Champion,
