It has been 17 billion years since we first heard that Sigourney Weaver would return for a sequel to the movie. We are more perplexed now that we know how Weaver is returning.
According to Empire Magazine, Weaver will be playing an entirely new character in the sequel to the movie. The girl is not a human, but the daughter of Jake and Neytiri from the movie.
Kiri, the adopted daughter of the couple, will be played by Weaver in The Way of Water. Weaver talked to Empire about what it was like to play a blue teenager as a child. Yes, I do. When I was 11 years old, I was 5 feet 10 inches tall. Kiri would feel uncomfortable a lot of the time. She is trying to find out who she is. Jim challenged me and I was happy to be part of it.
Adult actors play children all the time, especially in the world of voice acting, and it does seem from at least one Empire released of Kiri that Weaver will also appear in some capacity as Dr. Considering the fancy mocap rigs that we know bring the Na'vi to life for the majority of the movie, there's going to be something weird about watching Weaver's physical performance being recreated onto a teenager. A teenager is a teenager.
The Way of Water is the title of the movie.
