(UTV | UNITED KINGDOM) – Empire Magazine has published the first official stills of Kate Winslet’s character in the upcoming James Cameron-directed “Avatar: The Way of Water”.
Winslet stars as Ronal, the deeply loyal and fearless leader of a tribe of Na’vi. Of her role, Winslet says: “She is strong. A warrior. Even in the face of grave danger, and with an unborn baby on board, she still joins her people and fights for what she holds most dear. Her family and their home.”
Winslet broke Tom Cruise’s record for the longest underwater breath-hold in a feature film – racking up seven minutes and fourteen seconds. She joins returning cast members Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Stephen Lang and Sigourney Weaver in the project.
“Avatar: The Way of Water” unfolds more than a decade after the events of the first and follows the Sully family and the lengths they go to keep each other safe. The film opens in cinemas on December 16th.
Also today it has been confirmed that Ubisoft will release the “Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora” video game on November 18th.
