New Avatar: Fire And Ash Footage Is Being Dropped With The Way Of Water’s Theatrical Re-Release, But There’s A Catch That Could Be Pricey For Die-Hard Fans

by

James Cameron’s highly anticipated sequel to *Avatar*, titled *Fire and Ash*, is coming to theaters soon. The trailer has already given us a glimpse of new Na’vi characters and stunning visuals, making many eager to return to the world of Pandora. Great news for fans: *Avatar: The Way of Water* will be re-released in theaters, and we’ll also get a sneak peek at footage from the third movie. But there’s a catch – seeing all of this could get expensive for dedicated fans.

It’s been three years since the second *Avatar* movie came out in theaters (and is available on Disney+), so you might want a refresher before the new film, *Fire and Ash*, arrives. Luckily, Variety reports that James Cameron’s sequel will be re-released in October. And here’s a treat: screenings will include a first look at new footage from *Fire and Ash*. However, there’s a catch – three different clips were made, and each showing will only play one of them.

If you really love this sci-fi series, you might go to multiple showings just to see all the preview clips. Some fans have already spent more than the cost of a single ticket to make sure they don’t miss any special content.

It’s smart for the studio to encourage fans to see *The Way of Water* multiple times. But the real question is whether fans will keep paying to see every trailer for *Fire and Ash* before it comes out in December, just for the sake of having seen them all.

Re-releases of *Avatar* are great because they build excitement for the next installment. The 2010 *Avatar: Special Edition* re-release, for example, introduced a 3D version with eight minutes of previously unseen footage, including new creatures and action. This IMAX 3D version earned $33.2 million worldwide.

Re-releasing the original *Avatar* movie in 2022 was a smart strategy for *Way of Water*. It earned over $76 million globally and gave audiences a first look at the incredible underwater effects in the upcoming third film. If this re-release gets fans excited for the next *Avatar* movie, it will have been a success.

If you’re dedicated enough to see *The Way of Water* multiple times just to catch all the previews for *Fire and Ash*, it shows you’re a true *Avatar* fan. James Cameron’s *Avatar* films consistently prove that the world of Pandora is a huge draw at the box office, earning billions of dollars. But experiencing the Na’vi’s story and the incredible visuals is absolutely worth the price of admission.

Get a first look at *Avatar: Fire and Ash* during special showings of *Avatar: The Way of Water*, which returns to theaters globally on October 3rd. And be sure to mark your calendar for *Fire and Ash*, coming to theaters on December 19th!
