Avatar 2: Does Sigourney Weaver Know the Truth About Kiri’s Father?
216Thirteen years since Avatar stunned audiences and broke box office records, James Cameron returns to Pandora with his long-awaited sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water. Also returning, and reuniting with Cameron for the first time since the two worked together on the genre classic, Aliens, is Academy Award-nominee Sigourney Weaver. Yes, her original character, Grace Augustine, the doctor in charge of the Avatar program, did die in the 2009 film, but she left something behind. Grace's Avatar had a daughter and now Weaver is playing that child, 14-year-old Kiri.
At the start of The Way of Water, audiences return to a Pandora that has healed from the aftermath of the Resources Development Administration’s attempts to harvest unobtanium, and now a new generation of Na’vi are learning their place in the world and the importance of family. When the RDA suddenly returns with even more devastating plans for the moon, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) are forced to flee the forest with their four children, Neteyam (Jamie Flatters), Lo'ak (Britain Dalton), Tuk (Trinity Bliss), and they adopted daughter, Weaver's Kiri.
Collider’s own Perri Nemiroff was able to sit down with Weaver for Avatar: The Way of Water's big debut in theaters on December 16th. During their conversation, Weaver explained how the character of Kiri evolved over the years, from when she first discussed the role with Cameron in 2010 to who we see in the finished film.
