The Weeknd teases theme song of 'Avatar: The Way Of Water', to release on this date

<p>It is a truth universally acknowledged that no matter what stratospheric heights James Cameron reaches, he will always be underestimated. Days before 1997's 'Titanic' was due for release, analysts predicted that the film will be an expensive disaster. It was not. It became by far the highest-grossing film in the history of cinema. Something similar happened with 2009's 'Avatar'. Critics were confused by Cameron's obsession over the CGI and motion-capture technology of the film, something, they thought, would have no impact on the film's theatrical performance. And 'Avatar', much like 'Titanic', broke the record of Cameron's own film. Yes, 'Titanic'.</p>

<p>And now, with 'Avatar: The Way of Water', history, sadly, is repeating itself. Once again, the analysts are predicting 'The Way of Water' to be a box office disaster that will lose Cameron and Disney tonnes of money. What they fail to see is Cameron is not just making a sequel for the heck of it. He is making a sequel (and several more) because he has more stories to tell in the 'Avatar' universe.&nbsp;</p>

<p>So how did he do that? He created a new visual language for the sequels. He, in effect, upgraded an already state-of-the-art technology.</p>

<p>The movie reversed the alien-invasion genre. Instead of the aliens, it was us humans invading another planet (more accurately a moon) for material gain.

But the US government, backed by its military with its warplanes and its artillery, attacked the Na'vi after trying to infiltrate them by using hybrids called avatars.</p>

<p>A lot of 'The Way of Water' is set underwater. And the advanced technology that allowed Cameron to film those scenes pretty much had to be invented. Cameron says, "The stuff we’re working with now is so advanced compared to the first film. He goes on to acknowledge that newer technology and more high-definition visuals do not necessarily translate to a better viewing experience.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Now does that make a better movie from an audience perspective? Absolutely not. The broader audience only cares about a story, the characters, and how the film makes them feel. I keep that in mind first and foremost every single day. With ‘Avatar’ and where I’ve chosen to take the story and open up the landscape and the characters that I’ve brought in and some of the questions that get asked, I don’t feel there’s anything that I need to say cinematically that I will not say across these four films," he adds.</p>

<p>The film continues the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their children) as they encounter new challenges and undergo fresh adventures. They come across a new tribe of the Na'vi, the blue-hued race of people Jake and Neytiri belong to as well.</p>

'Avatar: The Way of Water': How James Cameron invented a whole new visual language for the sequel

<p>A new featurette from the upcoming epic science fiction movie<strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/hollywood/news-james-camerons-%E2%80%98avatar-the-way-of-water%E2%80%99-runtime-revealed-and-it-is-massive-529307"> 'Avatar: The Way of Water'</a></strong> is here. The James Cameron film promises to be the cinematic event of the decade. A sequel to his 2009 movie 'Avatar', the film expands the franchise and is one of the many upcoming sequels. The featurette, a one-and-a-half clip, hypes up the movie, which is rightly marketed as the next big thing in Hollywood. Cameron has a knack for making such movies and then marketing the hell out of them. The original is the highest-grossing movie of all time in terms of worldwide returns, and Cameron had more story to tell in the franchise -- thus a sequel was, naturally, inevitable.</p>

<p>&nbsp;"I went to the studio and said, 'Let's not just do another movie. Let's swing for the fences,'" Cameron says in the clip. You can see the featurette for yourself above.</p>

A new featurette from the upcoming epic science fiction movie 'Avatar: The Way of Water' is here. The James Cameron film promises to be the cinematic event of the decade.

A new featurette from the upcoming epic science fiction movie 'Avatar: The Way of Water' is here. The James Cameron film promises to be the cinematic event of the decade. A sequel to his 2009 movie 'Avatar', the film expands the franchise and is one of the many upcoming sequels. The featurette, a one-and-a-half clip, hypes up the movie, which is rightly marketed as the next big thing in Hollywood. Cameron has a knack for making such movies and then marketing the hell out of them. The original is the highest-grossing movie of all time in terms of worldwide returns, and Cameron had more story to tell in the franchise -- thus a sequel was, naturally, inevitable. "I went to the studio and said, 'Let's not just do another movie. Let's swing for the fences,'" Cameron says in the clip. You can see the featurette for yourself above. The film will continue the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their children) as they encounter new challenges and undergo fresh adventures. It brings back Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Stephen Lang, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Giovanni Ribisi, Dileep Rao, and Matt Gerald from the first movie. Sigourney Weaver also returns, but in a different role. Kate Winslet, Cliff Curtis, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement, Michelle Yeoh, Brendan Cowell, Oona Chaplin, CJ Jones, and Vin Diesel join the cast. "The world is bigger. The stakes are higher. He was always looking at everything in wonder. It was the experience of the first movie, but on steroids." says Saldana.

'Avatar: The Way of Water' new clip teases the cinematic event of the decade. Watch

<p>Kate Winslet has revealed that she will re-watch 'Titanic' to mark the film's 25th anniversary which is just days away. James Cameron's tragic love story had released in US on December 19, 1997 and featured Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet in the lead.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Winslet and Cameron have reunited for 'Avatar: The Way of Water' which is set for a December 16 release worldwide.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While doing press for the 'Avatar' sequel, Winslet revealed that she will likely watch 'Titanic' in honor of the anniversary, despite disliking watching her own movies.<br />
<br />
"Well, I might. I mean, I'm just not very good at watching myself on screen. It's not just ‘Titanic,’ like I don't like watching myself in anything," she told 'Good Morning America' on Monday.</p>

<p>"I guess I probably will watch it. … You know people are talking about the 25 years — for us, it's actually longer," she added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I'm 47 years old now, guys, and I turned 21 when we were shooting that movie. So, it's like half my lifetime ago," she said of the Oscar-winning film.<br />
"It's amazing and incredible to have been part of something that, you know, [is] so steeped in nostalgia for people and still resonates with people in the way that it does," Winslet said. "It's a huge, huge honor that people still love something that I was a part of all those years ago."<br />
<br />
The film received 13 nominations at the Oscars that year including a Best Actress nomination for Winslet for playing Rose in the film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Winslet had earlier revealed that her journey in the film wasn't easy. "I was scared of Hollywood. A big, scary place where everyone had to be thin and look a certain way. And I knew that I did not look that way or feel like I fit there, so if I was ever going to belong, I had to earn my place. And to me, I hadn’t earned it," she had said in an earlier interview.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Cameron recently agreed with what Winslet had to say about her journey to stardom.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I think Kate came out of ‘Titanic’ a bit traumatized by the scale of the production and her responsibility within it," he told the Radio Times, according to the Daily Mail. "We've both been eager over time to work together again, to see what the other is about at this point in our lives and careers. She's very large and in charge on set. You'd swear she was producing the film."<br />

<p>'Avatar: The Way of Water' was easily the most-awaited project of the year, and it is only a few days away. James Cameron returns to the big screen as a director after more than a decade. The film has a huge ensemble cast, with several new names joining the franchise. Among them is Kate Winslet, who worked with Cameron in 'Titanic'. In a recent interview, Winslet revealed what prompted her to accept the offer.</p>

<p>While speaking to Empire magazine, she said she loved the first movie. "The deeper themes it conveys about our declining planet, were extremely poignant, and that mattered to me. So, I had no reservations at all. Plus, I was jumping into a well-oiled machine, so I was excited to think that everything they had learned as filmmakers from the first movie, would have only been ironed out and amplified in its second go around. And that's fun!" she said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the answer to another question, she said that Cameron remains a "perfectionist" and that "part hasn't changed at all. And that is what makes his movies precise in every tiny detail.

'Avatar: The Way of Water' new trailer promises an enthralling cinematic experience. Watch

<p>If you like the Avatar films, here’s your time to prove it! Ace director James Cameron will be keeping a close tab on the box office results this time as his latest ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ is finally hitting the theatres. Starring some of the most prominent names in the world of cinema, the film has been made on an enormous budget and has a lot riding on it. If it doesn’t work out in terms of money, the director has plans to not ever make an Avatar sequel (or prequel for that matter).</p>

<p>In an interview, James Cameron admitted, “The market could be telling us we’re done in three months, or we might be semi-done, meaning: ‘OK, let’s complete the story within movie three, and not go on endlessly’, if it’s just not profitable.”</p>

<p>“We’re in a different world now than we were when I wrote this stuff, even,” Cameron added. “It’s the one-two punch – the pandemic and streaming. Or, conversely, maybe we’ll remind people what going to the theatre is all about. This film definitely does that. The question is: how many people give a shit now?”</p>

<p>‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ is finally coming to the audiences after a gap of 13 years. The first Avatar was a massive success.&nbsp;</p>

<p>On what he might consider investing time in if this film doesn’t work out for him, he said, “The Avatar films themselves are kind of all-consuming. I’ve got some other things I’m developing as well that are exciting. I think eventually over time – I don’t know if that’s after three or after four – I’ll want to pass the baton to a director that I trust to take over, so I can go do some other stuff that I’m also interested in. Or maybe not. I don’t know.”</p>

<p>However, he did say that the fourth movie “is a corker” and “it’s a motherf***er” and hoped to get to make it “but it depends on market forces.”</p>

<p>The much-anticipated ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ will release on December 16.&nbsp;</p>

I think eventually over time – I don’t know if that’s after three or after four – I’ll want to pass the baton to a director that I trust to take over, so I can go do some other stuff that I’m also interested in. Or maybe not. I don’t know.” However, he did say that the fourth movie “is a corker” and “it’s a motherf***er” and hoped to get to make it “but it depends on market forces.” The much-anticipated ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ will release on December 16.

James Cameron might never make an Avatar film again if this happens

<p>A new trailer for 'Avatar The Way of Water' is here. James Cameron's much-awaited sequel to 2009's 'Avatar' will bring you back to Pandora. The original was a big step up for computer-generated visuals that outdid anything else that had come before in photorealism, but 'The Way of Water' may even be a bigger visual upgrade over its contemporaries. The film brings a majority of the original's cast and adds big names. In the first film, Sam Worthington's Jake Sully chose to join the Na'vi and fought with them against the rapacious humans who had come to Pandora, an Earth-like habitable extrasolar moon from the Alpha Centauri System.</p>

James Cameron's ‘Avatar The Way of Water’ runtime revealed, and it is massive

A sequel to 2009's Avatar, the script comes from Cameron and Josh Friedman, with Worthington and Saldana starring alongside Michelle Yeoh, Kate Winslet, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Oona Chaplin and more. Cameron joined the presentation today virtually from New Zealand, where he is finishing the film and working in the middle of a "pretty hectic" five-year production cycle on the second, third and fourth installments of the series. Also read: Taylor Swift made heads turn in stunning gold sequin gown at Toronto Film Festival red carpet "It`s going great and the stuff coming in from Weta is looking spectacular," Cameron told the crowd. "I'm super excited to be finally finishing up movie 2. I know everyone`s been waiting a long time. Hopefully, we'll show something today and you can decide if it`s been worth it." Worthington and Saldana are parents in the new film. "The whole movie deals with protecting family. We've all gone through Covid and realised that love and being with family is paramount to what life is and it`s worth fighting for. We put that in the movie," Worthington said on stage. Cameron also said they remastered Avatar for a whole new generation of movie fans "who never got to see it in a movie theatre. That will be the drumroll and remind people of the story."

Oscar-winning film 'Avatar' to re-release in theatres on this date

<p>'Shazam! Fury Of The Gods' is an upcoming DC superhero movie that is scheduled for a release window that pits it against James Cameron's 'Avatar: The Way of Water' that is almost certainly sure to be the biggest movie of the year. 'Fury Of The Gods' brings back David F Sandberg, who also helmed 2019's 'Shazam!'. Apart from him, Zachary Levi, who portrayed the adult version of the titular superhero, also returns.</p>

<p>Sandberg, who is otherwise known for directing horror films like 'Annabelle: Creation' and 'Lights Out', has spoken about facing a titan like Cameron in the battlefield of box office returns.</p>

<p>He joked while speaking to Slash Film, "He should be very scared. This is the end of James Cameron. (laughs)"</p>

<p>He the added more soberly, "No, I think it's actually good, because they're such different movies. I mean, look at the first 'Avatar.' There were other movies that came out at the same time and did really well ... especially at Christmas ... everybody knows that 'Avatar' is going to be, like, the biggest movie ever. I'm going to go see it. But yeah, there's room for 'Shazam!' too."</p>

<p>The 'Shazam' franchise is about an orphan kid called Billy Batson who is bestowed with magical powers by an ancient wizard. He gains Solomon's wisdom, Hercules' strength, Atlas' stamina, Zeus' power, Achilles' courage, and Mercury's speed. In the first film, Billy was assisted by his friend Freddy to figure out his powers. Thanks to Bily, his foster siblings also gained powers in the end.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Asher Angel, Jack Dylan Grazer, Adam Brody, Ross Butler, Meagan Good, and Djimon Hounsou will also return. Lucy Liu, Helen Mirren, and &nbsp;Rachel Zegler join the franchise with this film.</p>

<p>'Shazam! Fury Of The Gods' will release on December 21, 2022.</p>

<p>Before 'Shazam! Fury Of The Gods', Dwayne Johnson will make his superhero debut with 'Black Adam', who is traditionally a supervillain of 'Shazam'.

'Avatar The Way of Water' trailer out! James Cameron takes you back to his fantasy world Pandora

“I think those strong thematic threads were the surprise or the revelation to me because I’d just always thought it was all scattershot," he said.<br />
Cameron began drawing as a child, and as a young man, he focused on scenes based on his favourite sci-fi stories and comic books.<br />
<br />
One of his first forays into movies was creating the fantasy world of "Xenogenesis," a film that never saw the light of day but a pilot can be seen on YouTube.<br />

'Avatar' director James Cameron's inspirations laid bare in art book

<p>Filmmaker James Cameron has shared that the pre-production of his upcoming 'Avatar'&nbsp;sequels was not as smooth as it seemed.<br />
<br />
The director told author Marianne Williamson that he almost fired his 'Avatar'&nbsp;sequel writers' room, which is pitching new ideas for the upcoming movies, reports aceshowbiz.com.<br />
<br />
"When I sat down to write the sequels, I knew there were going to be three at the time, and eventually it turned into four," Cameron said.<br />
He added: "I put together a group of writers and said, 'I don't want to hear anybody's new ideas or anyone's pitches until we have spent some time figuring out what worked on the first film, what connected, and why it worked."<br />
<br />
The writers apparently still didn't get it at first, and Cameron had to threaten that he would let them go, which eventually worked.<br />
"They kept wanting to talk about the new stories. I said, 'We aren't doing that yet.'

Filmmaker James Cameron has shared that the pre-production of his upcoming 'Avatar' sequels was not as smooth as it seemed. The director told author Marianne Williamson that he almost fired his 'Avatar' sequel writers' room, which is pitching new ideas for the upcoming movies, reports aceshowbiz.

Filmmaker James Cameron has shared that the pre-production of his upcoming 'Avatar' sequels was not as smooth as it seemed. The director told author Marianne Williamson that he almost fired his 'Avatar' sequel writers' room, which is pitching new ideas for the upcoming movies, reports aceshowbiz.com. "When I sat down to write the sequels, I knew there were going to be three at the time, and eventually it turned into four," Cameron said. He added: "I put together a group of writers and said, 'I don't want to hear anybody's new ideas or anyone's pitches until we have spent some time figuring out what worked on the first film, what connected, and why it worked." The writers apparently still didn't get it at first, and Cameron had to threaten that he would let them go, which eventually worked. "They kept wanting to talk about the new stories. I said, 'We aren't doing that yet.' Eventually, I had to threaten to fire them all because they were doing what writers do, which is to try and create new stories. I said, 'We need to understand what the connection was and protect it, protect that ember and that flame'," he said. The creative difference didn't cause a delay in the production. Cameron was also optimistic that 'Avatar 2' is still on track for a December 17 release this year despite the Covid pandemic.

When James Cameron almost fired 'Avatar' sequel writers

<p>James Cameron`s science-fiction blockbuster 'Avatar'&nbsp;is poised to return to the top of the all-time movie box office charts this weekend after the film was re-released in China.<br />
<br />
'Avatar',&nbsp;which debuted in 2009, held the global box office title for a decade until it was overtaken by the Marvel superhero epic 'Avengers: Endgame'&nbsp;in 2019.<br />
<br />
On Friday, Cameron`s film rung up an estimated $3.5 million in new ticket sales after it was re-released in China, where moviegoing has rebounded following theatre closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<br />
<br />
That put "Avatar" just shy of the $2.798 billion worldwide total collected by 'Endgame',&nbsp;according to distributor Walt Disney Co. Both films are now owned by Disney after the company bought entertainment assets from Fox in 2019.<br />
<br />
Cameron has been working on four sequels to "Avatar." The next film, which has been delayed several times, is currently scheduled for release in December 2022.</p>

'Avatar' expected to retake all-time box office crown after China re-release

<p>A television series adaptation of film director James Cameron`s hit 1994 action-comedy movie `True Lies` is currently in the works. As per The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming series has received a pilot order at broadcast network CBS.<br />
<br />
The series is a reboot of the 1994 feature film starring actors Jamie Lee Curtis and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Burn Notice`s Matt Nix will pen the script for the drama with the film`s writer and director, James Cameron, set to executive produce the potential series. McG, who has been attached to previous attempts to reboot the film, is also set to direct the pilot and executive produce. Disney-owned 20th Television is the studio on the pilot. McG`s Wonderland Sound and Vision president Mary Viola and frequent Cameron collaborator Rae Sanchini of his Lightstorm Entertainment banner will also executive produce.</p>

<br />
The pilot has the same concept as the movie. It follows the story of an unfulfilled suburban housewife, who is shocked to discover that her bland and unremarkable computer consultant husband is a skilled international spy. She is propelled into a life of danger and adventure when she is recruited to work alongside him to save the world as they try to revitalize their passionless marriage.<br />
<br />
This is the latest attempt to bring `True Lies` to television. Fox developed a take in 2017 with Arrow`s Marc Guggenheim attached to pen the script, however, it never moved forward. McG in 2019 floated that a `True Lies` TV series was in the works for Disney+.</p>

James Cameron developing 'True Lies' reboot

<p>James Cameron's 1997 hit 'Titanic'may have catapulted the lead pair Kate Winslet and Leonardo Di Caprio to superstardom, but the flip side of this stardom led to intrusion into their personal lives. Kate Winslet, in a recent interview, has revealed that she felt bullied post the success of 'Titanic'.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Winslet became a household name at the age of 21 after the success of the James Cameron film that cast her as Leonardo DiCaprio's romantic lead.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
During an appearance in the podcast WTF, the actress has spoken about the aftermath of her breakout role in her personal life.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I went into self-protective mode right away (after ‘Titanic' came out)," Winslet said. "It was like night and day from one day to the next. I was subject to a lot of personal physical scrutiny, I was criticised a lot and the British press were quite unkind to me, "she added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I felt bullied if I'm honest. I remember thinking, ‘this is horrible and I hope it passes' -- it did definitely pass but it made me realise that, if that's what being famous was, I was not ready to be famous, definitely not," she shared.</p>

<p>Kate recalls that instead of cashing on her newfound fame, she chose to hone her craft.<br />
<br />
"I still felt like I wasn't really ready to do lots of big Hollywood jobs. It was a huge responsibility. I didn't want to make mistakes, I didn't want to blow it -- I wanted to be in it for the long game. So I did strategically try and find smaller things, just so I could understand the craft a bit better and understand myself a bit better, and maintain some degree of privacy and dignity," Winslet said.<br />
<br />
The two time Oscar winner eventually played prominent roles in films like 'The Reader', 'Revolutionary Road' and 'Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind' to name a few. She was last seen in 'Ammonite' where she played as real-life palaeontologist Mary Anning, who falls madly in love with a young woman played by Saoirse Ronan.&nbsp;<br />

Top 5 Hollywood news today: ‘Avatar 2' extravagant budget, Oscars 2021 to get postponed

<p>New Zealand has lifted lockdown as the country has been quite successful with dealing with coronavirus. This means that now film studios that were planning to shoot in the country can go back to business. One such film is James Cameron’s ‘Avatar’.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to a Deadline report, the combined budget of the film is over $1 billion (Rs 7500 crore).</p>

<p>Earlier this year, makers had announced the release dates of the upcoming sequels to the hit film. They go as follows: ‘Avatar 2’ on December 17, 2021; ‘Avatar 3’ in December 2023; ‘Avatar 4’ in December 2025; and ‘Avatar 5’ in December 2027.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Cameron has said that he hopes for the second film to meet its release date, despite the unexpected delay.</p>

<p>James Cameron had said in an earlier interview, “It’s putting a major crimp in our stride here. I want to get back to work on Avatar, which right now we’re not allowed to do under state emergency laws or rules. So it’s all on hold right now. We were about to shoot down in New Zealand, so that got pushed. We’re trying to get back to it as quick as we can.”</p>

<p>“On the bright side, New Zealand seems to have been very effective in controlling the virus and their goal is not mitigation, but eradication, which they believe that they can do with aggressive contact tracing and testing,” he explained. “So there’s a very good chance that our shoot might be delayed a couple of months, but we can still do it. So that’s good news.”</p>

<p>The filmmaker also added, “We’ve got everybody – everybody at Weta Digital and Lightstorm – working from home to the extent that that is possible. But my work is on the stage doing the virtual cameras and so on, so I can do a bit of editing, but it’s not great for me.”</p>
