And in addition to the epic, the most spectacular CGI of cinema, ‘Fire and ash’ will continue to delve into the drama through his Na’avi protagonist familywith Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldaña again at the head.
Do not keep reading from here if you have not seen ‘Avatar: the sense of water’.
‘The sense of water’ reached its climax with a new confrontation that led to tragedy for Jake and Neytiri’s family: the death of his firstborn son, Neteyam. And that loss will be explored in ‘Fire and Asho’, of which we already have here the first official image of Neytiri, interpreted by digital capture of the Zoe Saldaña movement. This new look, offered exclusively by Empire Magazine, perfectly encompasses the feeling behind the film. In the frame we see Neytiri pointing his arc and in full shout of war, with the face covered with painting (more than usual) and an expression of rage and unstoppable pain.
According to statements from Saldaña to Empire, the loss and “absolute devastation” are still very present in Neytiri’s mind at the beginning of ‘Avatar: fire and ash’. “The film continues that pain organically,” says the actress. “AND As that pain does not disappear, anger can also arise from it. The Sully are going to be tested as a family. “And he adds:” Everything that is happening leads her to question the link she has with her husband, but also the one who has herself, with her people, her land and the way of being of the Na’vi. He will question everything. “
Prepare the scarves
Cameron already warned it in an interview last March: we will cry with ‘Avatar: fire and ash’. In fact, he gave his wife as an example, which the filmmaker says “He cried for four hours” after seeing her.
According to Cameron, The audience can expect an absolutely heartbreaking interpretation by Zaldañarecent winner of the Oscar Prize, in the role of Neytiri by processing the horrible loss of his son. “Zoe is incandescent in this film,” says the director. “With ‘Emilia Pérez’ he is finally being recognized as the great actress that I have always known what is. But in ‘fire and ash’ goes beyond everything you have seen before.”
