Avatar received Oscar nominations for best picture, directing, editing, score, sound mixing, and editing, and won for cinematography, visual effects, and art direction. The film was also honored with Golden Globe Awards for best motion picture (drama) and best director.
Thirteen years later, in 2022, Avatar: The Way of Water opened and went on to become the third highest grossing movie ever at the global box office with $2.34 billion. The pic earned four Oscar nominations including best picture and won for an Oscar for best achievement in visual effects.
Both Avatar movies received A CinemaScores.
In Avatar: Fire and Ash, Jake and Neytiri’s family grapple with grief after Neteyam’s death. They encounter a new, aggressive Na’vi tribe, the Ash People, who are led by the fiery Varang, as the conflict on Pandora escalates and a new moral focus emerges.
Last night at Deadline’s Sound & Screen concert, audiences heard an exclusive performance from Avatar: Fire and Ash‘s score from composer Simon Franglen.
