\"Sigourney<\/p>\n

Director James Cameron<\/strong> recently revealed that production on Avatar 2<\/em><\/strong> is 100% complete in both live-action and motion capture filming, and Avatar 3<\/strong><\/em> wasn\u2019t too far behind. If you\u2019re wondering what\u2019s taking so damn long, it might be more than just the extensive post-production process and development of state-of-the-art technology<\/a>. Because according to Sigourney Weaver, preparation for the shoot required cast members to train with \u201celite military divers\u201d in order to allow them to hold their breath underwater for as much as six minutes, so Cameron could maximize the amount of footage he could capture in a single take.<\/span><\/p>\n

The New York Times<\/em><\/a> spoke with Sigourney Weaver for a recent profile of the actress (which is worth reading in its entirety), and part of their discussion turned to her work on the Avatar<\/em> sequels. At 70 years old, she wasn\u2019t precluded from the rigorous underwater training required to make the anticipated sequel to the 2009 sci-fi action adventure. And that\u2019s exactly how Weaver likes it. She said, \u201cI don\u2019t really say to myself, \u2018Well, you can\u2019t do this.\u2019 Or, \u2018You can\u2019t do that.\u2019 Let me at it! And we\u2019ll see.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Alien<\/em> and Ghostbusters<\/em> star was definitely given a handful with the Avatar<\/em> sequels. The New York Times<\/em> explained what was required of her in order to shoot the taxing underwater sequences:<\/p>\n

\u201cWeaver and other members of the cast had to learn not to squint or clamp their mouths shut \u2014 both natural reactions when you\u2019re submerged \u2014 during take after take in a gigantic water tank. She had weights around her waist and professional divers who sped her back to the surface for air at brief, regular intervals.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Needless to say, Weaver was a little worried. She recalled, \u201cI had some concerns. But that\u2019s what the training was for. And I really wanted to do it. I didn\u2019t want anyone to think, \u2018Oh, she\u2019s old, she can\u2019t do this.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Weaver is a big screen icon, and that\u2019s largely because of her performance as the tough Ellen Ripley in the Alien<\/em> franchise. So we\u2019d expect nothing less from the woman who fought plenty of xenomorphs, eventually sacrificed herself to stop the birth of a new alien queen, and was cloned 200 years later, still as tough as ever. As for exactly what she\u2019s doing in Avatar 2<\/em> and the rest of the sequels, we\u2019re not sure since she\u2019s playing a new character this time. But we\u2019ll find out in over two years when Avatar 2<\/em> hits theaters on December 16, 2022<\/strong>, followed by three more sequels every other year after that.<\/p>\n
