A new image from Avatar: Fire and Ash has been released. Audiences have waited for the return of Pandora for more than two years, and it’s almost time for James Cameron to continue the narrative he has been building for decades. The new look at this year’s blockbuster features the return of Zoe Saldaña as Neytiri. The fierce warrior from Pandora won’t be happy about the fact that she lost her oldest son in the last installment of the franchise. She will be out for revenge in the upcoming sequel.

Not much is known about the plot of Avatar: Fire and Ash. But even if James Cameron is keeping details from the new movie under wraps, there are several factors from Avatar: The Way of Water to keep in mind for this year’s adventure. The new Miles Quarritch (Stephen Lang) is still out there. Jake Sully’s (Sam Worthington) nemesis will continue to target the family for as long as he breathes. Avatar: Fire and Ash will also introduce a new tribe from the far end of Pandora. These Na’vi will feel very passionate about fire and their culture.

Return to Pandora

There are heavy expectations on the shoulders of Avatar: Fire and Ash. The previous two installments of the franchise became some of the highest-grossing films of all time. Disney will launch the new movie during the holiday movie season. The corridor between Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve proved to be successful for Avatar in the past. Jake and his family will need to grieve their loss while fighting against new enemies that will raise the stakes for the people of Pandora. One of the biggest franchises in the history of the industry will return in seven months, as James Cameron continues to make history with his impressive creation.

Avatar: Fire and Ash premieres in theaters on December 19.
