Very late last year around the time of the release of “Avatar: The Way of Water,” a rather wild rumor cropped up from Jeff Sneider on The Hot Mic podcast indicating filmmaker James Cameron handed in a nine-hour cut of “Avatar 3” to 20th Century Studios.
At the time he indicated Cameron insisted on doing the VFX for this cut so that all nine hours get fully rendered final visual effects before he’ll cut it down to feature length.
It seems crazy, but Sneider is doubling down on it in the latest episode of The Hot Mic saying Cameron has contemplated finishing the visual effects for the entirety of the third film’s content and then releasing it in limited series form:
He says: “The idea is that Cameron would do all the visual effects for his nine-hour cut of Avatar 3 and then release it on Disney+ as a limited series after the theatrical cut is released.”
Da gefällt mir die entsprechende Schlagzeile bei thewrap.com dazu:
Will the ‘Avatar’ Sequels Actually Have These Wacky Titles?
Aber hoffentlich entscheiden sie sich bei der Schreibweise der Titel für eine andere Schriftart als beim ersten Film - ansonsten dreht der arme Steven nämlich noch völlig durch:
Papyrus Years after Avatar's release, there's one thing Steven (Ryan Gosling) just can't get over...
