On Monday evening, the first trailer for Avatar: The Way of Water was officially posted online. On Twitter, the trailer was uploaded with the description, "This family is our fortress everywhere we go. Watch the brand-new #Avatar: The Way of Water teaser trailer. It will only be available in theatres on December 16, 2022."
The first sequel to director James Cameron's 2009 blockbuster featured the vivid blue oceans of Pandora, as well as the flying animals Toruk introduced in the original film and numerous whale-like creatures. Pandora is an Earth-like habitable extrasolar moon of the Alpha Centauri gas giant Polyphemus. The audience is shown the Na'vi and their relationships once more.
Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) as well as Zoe Saldana's Neytiri return in Avatar The Way of Water. "Wherever we travel, this family is our castle," Jake says in the trailer at one point. This year's sequel will hit theatres on December 16.
Avatar, The Way of Water, picks up more than a decade after the events of the 1st movie, telling the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their children), the trouble that chooses to follow them, the lengths they go to maintain each other safe, the fights they combat to stay alive, and also the tragedies they face.
The film stars Zoe Saldana, Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement, Giovanni Ribisi, and Kate Winslet. Also, it is directed by James as well as produced by him and Jon Landau. The company will re-release Avatar in theatres on September 23 to whet audiences' appetites.
"One of the hallmarks of Jim Cameron's writings is that they are always global and accessible themes that he weaves into them," Jon said earlier, according to news agency PTI. The Sully family will be at the center of each of the four sequels. Each story will be self-contained and will conclude on its own. Each film will have a satisfying conclusion but taken together; the four films will form a broader epic story."
"I just want you to know that Jon and I are here to work with you," James had added. The ideal solution is to provide content that is a must-see cinematic experience. I wanted our return to Pandora to be truly memorable. Every shot has been optimized for the largest screen, greatest resolution, and most immersive 3D. "I believe we succeeded."
Cameron's Avatar, released in 2009, became the highest-earning film of all time at the global box office, grossing more than USD 2.8 billion. Sigourney Weaver will reprise her role as Dr. Grace Augustine, and Stephen Lang will reprise his role as Colonel Miles Quaritch in Avatar The Way of Water. Vin Diesel and Kate Winslet, who featured in James Cameron's 1997 classic Titanic, are among the newcomers.
