Don’t you dare start a discourse about the fact that nobody wants anything. Avatar3. Everyone has been laying out their stance on Avatar’s “cultural impact” in the run-up to the 2022 film. The path of waterthen James Cameron dropped his rebuttal, three hours of beautiful, thundering water action (which grossed $2.3 billion worldwide). We can let Avatar3now subtitled Fire and ashwash over us. Or perhaps burn?
James Cameron was on hand at the 2024 D23 Expo on Friday to spread the good word about Avatar and update fans who know he’s taking way too long to finish these things. Yes, the third Avatar film is on track to meet its current release date of December 19, 2025. And yes, Avatar4 And Avatar5 are still very much in development (although no real updates came out of the panel). The Na’vi are here to stay, haters can go to hell.
Avatar: Fire and Ash finds most The path of water cast returns for another dive into the seas of Pandora. Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver and Stephen Lang, plus all the kids who played the Na’vi children. Expect a few new additions: David Thewlis (the Harry Potter films) will pop up as a new Na’vi, while Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh will appear in human form as a new scientist.
During Cameron’s D23 panel, a few concept images were shown and, well, confirmed: fire AND ash.
Little else is known about the plot of Avatar: Fire and Ash Although Cameron teased at D23 that he’ll continue to traverse Pandora’s many biomes to encounter new clans of Na’vi . But good news for fans of riding tulkuns under the ocean: the infamous production photo of Kate Winslet wearing a cape while freediving at the bottom of a swimming pool is actually motion-capture work for the new film. And people are asking, why do we need more Avatar movies?
