More Details About “Avatar 3” and “Avatar 4” Revealed
Although Avatar: The Way of Water continues to reign supreme at the box office, James Cameron and his team already have the future of the franchise laid out.
The director has previously revealed that he has already shot “Avatar 3” and parts of “Avatar 4”. Now however, we are starting to get a clearer picture of what these movies might entail.
In a new interview with Empire magazine, Avatar producer Jon Landau, gave some insight into what fans can expect in upcoming sequels.
The Ash People
While Cameron has previously revealed that Avatar 3 would debut the “Ash People”, an antagonistic tribe of Na’vi, Landau explained that they are “an aggressive, volcanic race”, and that their leader is Varang, who will be played by Oona Chaplin (Game of Thrones).
“There are good humans and there are bad humans,” Landau said. “It’s the same thing on the Na’vi side. Oftentimes, people don’t see themselves as bad. What is the root cause of how they evolve into what we perceive as bad? Maybe there are other factors there that we aren’t aware of.
“Avatar 4” Time Jump
The other big news coming out of Landau’s interview was that their will be “a big time jump” for “Avatar 4”, which will lead into “Avatar 5”.
The producer had previously confirmed that “Avatar 5” would be partially set on Earth. In a previous interview with Gizmodo, he explained that, “We go to it to open people’s eyes, open Neytiri’s eyes, to what exists on Earth.”
“There’s over-population and a depletion of our natural resources that make life harder. But we don’t want to paint a bleak picture for where our world is going,” the producer added. “The films are also about the idea that we can change course.”
Although it will likely be a couple of years before movie goers can visit Pandora again, the future of the Avatar franchise sounds exciting!
