The new Avatar: The Way of Water featurette shows the director and the man behind it all for the Avatar films, James Cameron who shared how they came up with the sequel which came out 13 years after the first mega-block buster they released in 2009. In the featurette, James Cameron shared, “I went to the studio and I said ‘Let’s not just do another movie. Let’s swing for the fences.” Zoe Saldaña said, “The world is bigger, the stakes are higher. It was always looking at everything in wonder.” Lead actor Sam Worthington reveals, “What Jim is trying to create is very truthful, very emotional, grounded tales of a family trying to survive.” Returning to the film is Stephen Lang who shared, “It takes years to make these movies, but there’s nothing like this.”
