Fire And Water: Making The Avatar Films, a documentary from 20th Century Studios and Lightstorm Entertainment, is now streaming exclusively on Disney+.
The two-part documentary provides a fascinating glimpse into the making of the Oscar-winning box office phenomenon Avatar: The Way of Water and a first look at the upcoming Avatar: Fire and Ash. The doc features exclusive behind-the-scenes footage, concept art, and interviews with filmmakers and cast, including James Cameron, Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña, Stephen Lang, Kate Winslet, Sigourney Weaver, and more.
The documentary filmmakers traveled from Manhattan Beach, San Pedro, Shasta Lake, and the Channel Islands to the Bahamas, Hawaii, and New Zealand, following the cast and below-the-line team as they worked to hone and perfect the techniques of underwater performance capture technology and learned to free dive in a massive, state-of-the-art 680,000-gallon water tank.
James Cameron and Rae Sanchini serve as executive producers for Fire And Water: Making The Avatar Films. The filmmakers include director/producer Thomas C. Grane, writer/producer Richard Brehm, creative director Robert Glowacki, director of photography John Clisham, director of photography (interviews) Steven Wacks, and creative consultant Geoff Burdick.
Watch Fire And Water: Making The Avatar Films exclusively on Disney+, and catch Avatar: Fire and Ash only in theatres December 19.
