Avatar 3 – ENDING EXPLAINED: How Fire and Ash prepares for Avatar 4

Avatar: Fire and Ash arrived in theaters this week, but there is still no certainty of getting a fourth film in the franchise. According to the director and screenwriter James Cameronthe film would need to make a lot of money to justify a new feature. However, with the film confirmed or not, we will bring here the events that tell us what to expect from Avatar 4!

(THE FOLLOWING TEXT CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR AVATAR 3)

Since the beginning of the franchise in 2009, it has been clear to the public that Avatar it would have an epic outcome, pitting humans and Na’vi in ​​an unprecedented war. Humans’ interest in Pandora began with mining unobtainium, then moved to hunting the Tulkun, and now, in the third film, it has evolved into full-blown colonization.

With Earth decimated by endless exploration, humanity plans to colonize Pandora, terraforming the moon and seeking ways to survive there. The third film in the franchise defines the key to this objective in its first hour and leaves the path to the future well traced.

Em Avatar: The Path of Water, we see that humans returned to Pandora and this time formed a large colony there. They will hardly be expelled from the moon as happens in the first film, that is, no victory from then on will be complete. At the end of the second film, for example, we see Sully and the Metkayina having a beautiful and costly victory against the Sky People, but numerically insignificant.

Fire and Ashes takes place a few days after the second film and while Jake and Neytiri mourn the loss of their son, on the human side, the only loss felt is that of Quaritch’s ship, which sank in the sea. This shows that humans could launch a new attack at any time and this is what happens in much of the film.

This military advantage becomes even more dangerous thanks to the key that I mentioned previously. The second film ends with Spider living with Jake and the people of the reef, but the young man cannot breathe Pandora’s air. During an attack, he runs out of his oxygen reserve and almost dies. To save him, Kiri (Sigourney Weaver), who demonstrated a strong connection with the goddess Eywa, makes the young man undergo some type of mutation, and he becomes a hybrid capable of not only breathing, but also connecting to the moon’s bio-network.

Upon discovering this, the humans decide that Spider is the key to the complete colonization of Pandora, and make him their main objective. This new scenario changes everything in the relationship between the Na’vi and humans. Jake, who had renounced Toruk and the war, understands that the only solution to protect his family and the planet is to attack.

If it actually happens, the fourth film should focus even more on the human core and how they plan to completely take over Pandora. Among the Na’vi, we probably won’t have any clan very different from the one shown so far, as glimpses of the planet have never shown snowy or desert areas, instead, Kiri should become their main hope. Colonel Quaritch and Varang will certainly return, but their villainous participation should not be the highlight of the plot, which will essentially focus on the confrontation against humans — with the Sully children having more prominence than the adults.

However, only James Cameron and Disney will be able to confirm whether this film will actually happen and what it will be like. Keep an eye on Omelete for more news!
