First Trailer For ‘Avatar: The Way of Water’ Finally Drops

The trailer many fans have been waiting for is finally here. Disney has released the first trailer to Avatar: The Way of Water and boy, was it worth the wait.

The trailer starts with the main character Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) riding a mountain banshee towards a new location surrounded by azure blue water. Viewers are later shown a new character swimming and are treated to more breathtaking scenes of the Na’vi underwater.

Accompanying the stunning underwater visuals, are also scenes of the Na’vi suiting up in military wear – suggesting that they’re for some sort of war. The trailer ends with a voiceover from Jake, “I know one thing, wherever we go, this family is our fortress.”

The long-delayed sequel to Avatar by James Cameron first revealed its official title at CinemaCon 22. At the event, director James Cameron promised giant technological leaps forward from the original.

“We set out once again to push the limits of what cinema can do,” said Cameron.
