At long last, James Cameron’s Oscar-nominated Avatar: Fire and Ash is coming to Disney+ this summer. Pandora calls us home on June 24.
Look out, Cameron fans, because the director’s latest trip to Pandora is finally landing on Disney+. That’s right, Avatar: Fire and Ash, the Oscar-nominated blockbuster, is finally coming to the streamer on June 24. The third installment in James Cameron’s hugely successful Avatar franchise first hit cinemas in December and went on to gross an impressive $1.48 billion worldwide. The visually stunning epic also earned Academy Award recognition, taking home the Oscar for Best Visual Effects and further cementing the franchise’s reputation as a cinematic powerhouse.
Featuring thrilling action, grand spectacle, and unforgettable characters, the film was praised by fans and critics alike for its spectacular visual effects, dazzling new environments, and stunning new creatures. The story moved and inspired audiences around the globe, resulting in an unforgettable theatrical experience that topped the domestic box office for 5 consecutive weeks. The film joins the Avatar Collection on Disney+, where fans can stream the first two installments along with the documentary “Fire And Water: Making The Avatar Films.”
REVIEW
I had a blast with the film when I caught it at an early screening back in December. In my FOUR-STAR REVIEW, I said: “Avatar: Fire and Ash is another effortlessly breathtaking adventure through the glorious world of Pandora. Despite a lack of character depth, especially for the scene-stealing Varang, the film is another technical marvel that delivers the visual spectacle we have come to expect from this director. It delivers on the emotion, poignancy, action, and grand spectacle promised in The Way of Water, while culminating some of the loose threads from past adventures.
Though some of the special effects still struggle to hold up to the franchise originator, the film is a glorious spectacle from start to finish. Most of this brilliance can be attributed to the masterful cinematography of Russell Carpenter, who once again delivers a visual treat.” Read my full review here.
RELEASE
This is fantastic news. James Cameron has once again delivered a breathtaking cinematic spectacle with Avatar: Fire and Ash, and I’m thrilled that even more audiences will soon have the chance to experience it at home. While the film is undoubtedly best enjoyed on the biggest screen possible, its arrival on Disney+ gives those who missed it in cinemas the perfect opportunity to immerse themselves in Cameron’s latest vision of Pandora. His movies are pure escapism, and I cannot wait to enjoy the ride again. So, mark the date in your calendar and get ready to return to Pandora.
Avatar: Fire and Ash finally lands on Disney+ on June 24th.
