Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, “Avatar: The Way of Water” begins to tell the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their kids), the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive, and the tragedies they endure. Directed by James Cameron and produced by Cameron and Jon Landau, the film stars Zoe Saldana, Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement and Kate Winslet.
On Monday, the first teaser for James Cameron’s long-awaited Avatar sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, debuted to the masses after premiering at CinemaCon last month and playing in front of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in theaters this weekend.
The minute-and-a-half glimpse showcases the action-packed spectacle, including the iconic floating mountains and a new frontier for the movie franchise: the underwater world.
“I know one thing: Wherever we go, this family is our fortress,” Sam Worthington’s Jake Sully tells Zoe Saldaña’s Neytiri at the end of the teaser.
The first Avatar hit theaters in December 2009, revolutionizing 3D moviegoing with its cutting-edge advancements in technology. Along with Worthington and Saldaña, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Joel David Moore and CCH Pounder also return for this new installment. Cameron’s Titanic cohort Kate Winslet joins the cast along with Michelle Yeoh, Cliff Curtis, Edie Falco and Jemaine Clement.
