Avatar new trailer: James Cameron’s Academy Award winning 2009 epic adventure “Avatar,” the most successful film of all time, returns to theatres. Avatar is being re-released ahead of its sequel Avatar: The Way of Water. To mark Avatar re-release, the makers have shared a new trailer of the original film. It has the original characters exploring the world of Pandora.
Cameron's "Avatar" became the top-grossing film of all time at the worldwide box office with more than USD 2.8 billion in revenues. It was nominated for nine Academy Awards including best picture and best director, and won three Oscars, for best cinematography, production design and visual effects.
In 2010, a special extended theatrical re-release of "Avatar" exclusively in 3D theatres and IMAX 3D fetched USD 44 million worldwide.
Early last year, the re-release of the movie in China raised USD 57.7 million.
The film will hit the theaters on September 23. Check out the new trailer and new poster art to celebrate the rerelease of the 2009 film.
The film will be re-released in theatres in India three months prior to the release of its sequel - 'Avatar: The Way of Water'. The second part of the film will hit theatre globally on December 16, 2022. So in case you were confused about the characters, and their storyline or may have missed the first part of the film, you can now see it in theatres from September 23 onwards.
The much-awaited sequel 'Avatar: The Way of Water', as we mentioned, will be released on December 16 this year. The 2009 movie is coming back to theatres for two weeks starting September 23rd and will be shown in "all formats," including IMAX, 4K / HDR, and -- of course -- 3D. The second instalment - 'Avatar: The Way of Water' will be released by 20th Century Studios in English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.
The makers unveiled the teaser of the film in May this year. Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, 'Avatar: The Way of Water' tells the story of the Sully family (Jake, Neytiri, and their kids), the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive, and the tragedies they endure.
'Avatar: The Way of Water' stars Zoe Saldana, Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement, and Kate Winslet. Disney's official synopsis for the upcoming 'Avatar' sequel reads: "Set more than a decade after the events of the first film, 'Avatar: The Way of Water' begins to tell the story of the Sully family, the trouble that follows them, the lengths they go to keep each other safe, the battles they fight to stay alive and the tragedies they endure."
