Avatar: The Way of Water (or The Way of Water from its original title), also soberly named Avatar 2, is released in theaters on December 14, 2022i.e. 13 years after Avatar first of the name to within a few days. More than a decade will therefore have been necessary for director James Cameron and his teams to materialize the sequel to the greatest cinematographic success in the history of the 7th Art. With 2.9 billion US dollars collected, Avatar dethroned in 2009 another James Cameron film…Titanic (1997) and its 2.2 billion. In 2019, Avengers: Endgame takes second place on the podium, with its 2.8 billion. Avatar: Can the way of water do better than its illustrious predecessor?
Avatar: The waterway will be projected into the cinemas French from December 14, 2022. Since 20th Century Studios is owned by The Walt Disney Company, it’s a safe bet that James Cameron’s film will be available exclusively on Disney+ 18 months after its theatrical release. Of course, there are also the physical formats, DVDs and Blu-rayswhich will appear at French retailers well before, namely 4 months, i.e. mid-March 2023. It is unlikely to come across the Avatar franchise on another SVOD service (Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, etc.).
What is the story of Avatar: The Way of Water?
Directed by James Cameron himself 13 years after the first Avatar, The Way of the Water is necessarily set several years after the events of the 2009 film which took place in 2154. Following the departure of humans and the RDA (Resource Development Administration ) from Pandora, the Na’vi had time to regain possession of their lands while Jake Sully and Neytiri started their own families. The return of the Earth forces to the star does not bode well. Here is the official synopsis for Avatar: The Way of the Water:
Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, Avatar: The Way of the Water tells the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri and their children), the troubles that follow them, the battles they lead to protect each other and stay alive, and the tragedies they endure.
Avatar: The Waterway Begins more than 10 years after the end of the events of Avatar. Proof of this is that the children born during this period of the union between Jake Sully and Neytiri have grown well. James Cameron, aware that this universe still holds many mysteries, has already announced three sequels: Avatar 3, Avatar 4 and Avatar 5 whose releases are scheduled for 2024, 2026 and finally 2028. In addition, a 3 part graphic novel published by Dark Horse Comics serves as a prequel to Avatar: The Way of the Water. They will be published on December 6, 13 and 20, 2022, which frames the release of the film around the world.
Who are the creatives behind Avatar: The Way of the Water?
Avatar: The Way of the Water is directed by james cameron in person, the opposite would have been surprising. As moviegoers, moviegoers (or not for that matter), you necessarily know his work. This director is behind some of Hollywood’s most cult films with Terminator (1984), Aliens (1986), Abyss (1989), Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991), True Lies (1994) and Titanic (1997). It should be noted that the screenplay is the result of close collaboration between J. Cameron and the couple formed by Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver (Planet of the Apes: Supremacy, Jurassic World). The photography of the film is now placed in the hands of Russell Carpentera director who worked in the past with James Cameron on True Lies and Titanic. Finally, the soundtrack is entrusted to Simon Franglen whose musical compositions on Skyfall and Titanic knew how to move the spectators in their time.
What is the cast of Avatar: The Way of the Water?
As a sequel to Avatar, The Way of the Water offers the services of the original cast, starting with Sam Worthington (Terminator Rebirth) and Zoe Saldana (Guardians of the Galaxy, Star Trek) who take over the roles of Jake Sully and Neytiri. Much more mysterious are the returns of Sigourney Weaver (the Alien quadrilogy) and Stephane Lang (Don’t Breathe: The House of Darkness) in front of the camera. The fate reserved for them in the first film did not suggest a return in front of the camera. Many actors and actresses have also joined the project. This is particularly the case of Kate Winslet (Titanic) and Cliff Curtis (Sunshine, Training Day) who play the characters of Ronal and Tonowari here.

- Avatar: The way of water represents a huge bet for The Walt Disney Company and its subsidiaries. The film’s budget being considerable, it must be a hit at the box office or risk seeing Avatar 4 (2026) and Avatar 5 (2028) being purely and simply canceled. —
