As we walk into the last speech at Cinemacon in 2025, audiences are handed over to 3D glasses, it can only mean one thing: We are going back to Pandora. And, sure enough, Disney showed off the first shot of all time Avatar: Fire and Ashesthe third movie in the epic fantasy series of James Cameron.
Cameron wasn’t there, but he placed the presentation in Neytiri’s own abilities, Zoe Saldaña. The footage starts with the water tribe, Metkayina, the character swims in some kind of wreckage (maybe starting from the end of the previous movie?), and then scenes with the kids like Lo’ak, Kiri, Kiri, Tsireya, etc.
“The power of the ancestors is here,” Tsireya told Lo’ak as she touched his chest.
The wind trader showed up, and all Metcanina was excited. Very friendly. People cheered and some young characters, such as Kiri and even Spider, were riding with them. Cameron filmed these scenes with real love for these people. These are basically flying pirate ships, with sails made of almost pure material. Members of the tribe bark commands on the boat as you see in an old pirate movie, but the boats kept gliding. This is peaceful. This is very beautiful. This is very good.
The ship slowly floated on the hills with other Neytiris, riding her Ikran. The spider playfully hangs his feet from the side. Again, everything is quiet and calm. But it won’t last long. Neytiri finds something looking at them from the sky and screams for Jack. This is the Ash tribe, whose existence is more sinister than the Na’Vi people we know, thanks in large part to the bright red war paint they wear and the spark behind the Ikrainians.
The Ash tribe waving our heroes in a massive aerial battle. Jack shoots. Neytiri fired her bow and arrow. However, the Ashe tribe fired arrows with fire and began to burn the ships of the Wind Tribe.
We see Jack seemingly hiking through Pandora alone, walking along the huge volcano, and eventually hanging in the air with his hands, reaching the gates of the Ashes Tribe and giving up on himself. He and Neytiri had problems with Lo’ak and told him, “You can’t live in hatred!” They hugged him.
Tonowari, the head of the Water Tribe, said they could not defeat enemies from the stars. Then we see that the Ash tribe seems to work with Quaritch and other human armies.
Neytiri screamed at her child in the hospital. The raid is taking place. Talkun’s eyes were fast. Things ended with a huge battle, which was on rocks that looked like floating. They seem to be in some kind of floating wreckage in the battle that is still taking place. Neytiri and Ash Tribe’s leader (we’ve seen throughout the trailer, he’s fighting, but Neytiri’s roar is comparable to her flame bragging weapon. “Your goddess has no ruler here,” the Ash woman said, confirming that she doesn’t believe in ewa. That’s the ending.
So you have the tranquility of the Wind Tribe, the kinetic energy of the Ashes Tribe, in the middle, now including the Suli family. We have a feeling that not everyone will be alive.
Avatar: Fire and Ashes Opened on December 19, Cameron was still working hard.
