🌊 Avatar: The Way of Water almost had an even bigger story—but James Cameron and his team had so many ideas that they had to split the film into two, giving birth to Avatar: Fire And Ash.
🔥 Why the Split?
🎬 Cameron: “Movie 3 will actually be a little bit longer than movie 2.”
💡 The writers realized Act 1 of The Way of Water was packed with too much story, making the film move too fast.
🛠️ Solution: They expanded the ideas into Fire And Ash, allowing characters to breathe.
🌍 Deep Character Exploration
💬 Screenwriter Amanda Silver: “These movies are more than just propulsive plot and gorgeous spectacle. These are real characters.”
👨👩👦👦 Cameron says Jake Sully’s strict parenting style reflects his own personality: “Jake is a hard-ass motherf**er. That’s me.”*
🔄 Rick Jaffa drew from personal experience for Lo’ak’s sibling dynamic with Neteyam.
