Is Avatar 3 about fire?
Where the second movie focussed on the water clan, the Metkayina, the third movie in the franchise introduces an entirely new group of Na'vi. This clan is set to be darker and are known as the 'ash people'. They live on a part of Pandora that the movies have not yet explored and are the antagonists for the third movie.
Has Avatar 3 finished filming?
The movie was shot simultaneously with Avatar: The Way of Water. Filming was completed in December 2020 but as of February 2024, the movie was still undergoing some reshoots and pick-ups. The post-production work on Avatar 3 is as labour-intensive as shooting the actual scenes as the movies require a lot of VFX.
