James Cameron's Avatar: Fire & Ash, the third installment in the sci-fi saga, is set to release in December 2025. The film will introduce a new antagonist, Varang, leader of the Ash Clan, played by Oona Chaplin. The Ash Clan represents a more morally ambiguous take on the Na'vi people, willing to take extreme measures to protect their interests. The film will also feature the Wind Traders, a nomadic Na'vi clan who navigate the skies aboard large Pandoran creatures.
It almost feels strange to be going back to Pandora so soon. Three years between movies is nothing compared to 13, but who's complaining? Certainly not fans of the most visually stunning blockbusters in history. And that title goes to Avatar, the second sequel to which is due for release at the end of 2025.
“Varang is the leader of a people who have gone through an incredible hardship. She’s hardened by that. She will do anything for them, even things that we would consider to be evil. One thing we wanted to do in this film is not be black-and-white simplistic. Or blue-and-pink simplistic.” Chaplin’s performance as Varang appears to have taken Cameron by surprise. “Her embodiment of is so good that I didn’t quite appreciate how good her performance is until we got the Wētā animation back,” he revealed. “She’s an enemy, an adversarial character, but makes her feel so real and alive.”
