Avatar 3: James Cameron hints at fire-wielding Na’vi, says ‘last parts will be the best’

James Cameron has teased the world of Avatar 3 and it’s going to be bigger and darker. The filmmaker, whose Avatar 2 is smashing global box office records, said the film’s third instalment will “explore new worlds” and show a new tribe.

While the first Avatar (2009) showed the forest-dwelling Omaticaya as an introduction to the Na’vi, the sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, introduced the Metkayina– the tribe that lives in the coastal regions of Pandora.

According to a report in Collider, James Cameron said the audience will now get to see a darker side of the Na’vi– fire-wielding residents of the planet, that he called the ‘Ash People’. “The fire will be represented by the ‘Ash People.’ I want to show the Na’vi from another angle because, so far, I have only shown their good sides. In the early films, there are very negative human examples and very positive Na’vi examples. In Avatar 3, we will do the opposite.”
