Culture news “I would put a gun in my mouth” James Cameron denies this rumor which is growing about the film Avatar 3 and that’s not bad!
During an interview, the Canadian director made a point of denying this information that his fans massively conveyed.
Undeniably, James Cameron established himself as one of the best directors in the world during his very long career. With a keen eye for detail, the Canadian filmmaker leaves absolutely nothing to chance, which makes his feature films exceptional, but his behavior during filming is sometimes too demanding, even dangerous.
From now on, he devotes himself entirely to his science fiction saga Avatar which saw the light of day for the first time in 2009. 13 years later, its sequel achieved the feat of bringing together a very large number of spectators, thus proving that its audience is still there despite the decade that has passed. As you know, at least three more opuses will be released, and James Cameron has already shot many scenes for the third film and a few for the fourth. However, he felt compelled to deny a rumor that he was working on a nine-hour edit of Avatar 3! It was in an interview that he spoke to set the record straight about his work.
James Cameron denies this rumor in a 9-hour montage
It’s no secret that James Cameron is passionate and works extremely hard to produce the best possible film. However, some fans may have gone a bit far in reporting that there are nine hours of content for Avatar 3. He took advantage of an interview to deny this rumor and explain this confusion:
Besides, can I immediately deny information that has been disseminated? There’s no nine-hour rough cut of Avatar 3…I’d put a gun in my mouth if I ever did a nine-hour rough cut. No, what I said is that it’s nine hours of material, which is Avatar 3, Avatar 4, and Avatar 5 – which is, you know, three hours per movie. Somehow this turned into a nine hour movie – can you imagine?
In other words, it has nine hours of content, but spread over several films, which makes it a less colossal work than some imagined. Moreover, he had recently clarified that he needed to shoot a few additional scenes for this third opus, which worried fans about its release date of December 17, 2025.
