James Cameron Talks About Avatar In Its 12th Anniversary Year

Creating A Whole New Cinematic World

It’s 12 years since Avatar was released and we should be seeing the followup films at some point so here’s its director James Cameron talking about the genesis and creation of it at its 10th anniversary event in 2019…

On the lush alien world of Pandora live the Na’vi, beings who appear primitive but are highly evolved. Because the planet’s environment is poisonous, human/Na’vi hybrids, called Avatars, must link to human minds to allow for free movement on Pandora. Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), a paralyzed former Marine, becomes mobile again through one such Avatar and falls in love with a Na’vi woman (Zoe Saldana). As a bond with her grows, he is drawn into a battle for the survival of her world.
