Avatar: Fire and Ashes
After a relentless battle against the dreaded Colonel Quaritch and suffering untold losses, Sally welcomes Metkaina’s leader, Tonovar, into their fold. But the battle is not over: humans will attack again, and the people of Pandora must unite to defeat the invaders once again. After all, Quaritch is still in the game and suggests a final duel between Jake and his former colonel at the top, and the two warriors decide the fate of Pandora…
13 years passed between the first and second installments, but the wait largely paid off: in 2022, Avatar: The Waterway was, in every respect, a resounding triumph of cinema. While the second opus offered a story with complex characters and emotional evolution, while developing the extraterrestrial mythology invented by James Cameron, revealing a new angle to the moon of Pandora, the third part promises to take this exploration even further. This extraordinary world was born already 16 years ago – and especially in the conflict between the people of Pandora and humans. So, as its title suggests, fire and ashes are to be expected.
The cast includes regulars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder and Giovanni Ribisi reprising their roles from the previous films, while David Thewlis (Harry Potter) and Oona Chaplin (Game of Thrones) portray new characters .
Taken at the same timeAvatar: The Way of Water Since 2017, Avatar: Fire and Ash is ready to amaze us. Two additional sequels are also expected: Avatar 4 and Avatar 5 in 2029 and 2031, respectively.
