Even though the plot of Avatar: Ash and Fire remains unclear, it is known that the third installment will introduce the audience to a different side of Pandora and the Na’vi community. It is set to focus on Ash people, volcano-dwelling beings but there’s more to it than meets the eye. In a recent interview with Deadline, Zoe Saldaña who plays female lead Neytiri, dropped a major hint about the plot of the third installment.
“The way that we left the Sully family, they’re mourning heavily the loss of their child,” she said. “So I do believe that that will carry out a great deal in the third installment of Avatar. Jake and Neytiri are on this journey of acceptance, of accepting who they are and what they must be for each other and how they’re going to push forward to keep their family safe,” the actress added.
It is no doubt that Avatar: Ash and Fire will be visually appealing but Zoe Saldaña claims the story of the forthcoming entry would be more appealing to the audience. “I love the fact that in the core of this entire saga is a beautiful love story, and I love that Jim really wrote that for them. But it’s not going to be easy. They’re not always going to meet eye to eye, and I just hope that they keep each other safe. That’s my hope for them,” she explained.
James Cameron describes the Ash People in ‘AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH’ as a reflection of the worst side of N’avi.
“We have a lot of anger and a lot of rage in the world we live in right now”
