"I think we all pretty much remember what we were feeling as adolescents," Weaver told the outlet of her role."I certainly do. I was 5'10" or 5'11" when I was 11. I felt strongly that Kiri would feel awkward a lot of the time. She's searching for who she is. I was thrilled to be given that challenge by Jim."
Cameron admitted that"as an acting challenge, it's big" to have"a 60-something actor playing a character [decades younger than] her actual biological age." Weaver -- or"Sig," as Cameron refers to her -- is 72 and reportedly workshopped the role with a group of young girls. "Sig thought it was all kinds of fun," continued the director."Sigourney just became younger. She looked younger, she had more energy, and she never quite stepped out of Kiri for our whole capture period. She had a glow on her face and lightness in her step and a fun spirit.
In addition to the returns of Weaver, Saldana and Worthington, Stephen Lang will also be back -- while Cliff Curtis, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder, Edie Falco, Jemaine Clement and Kate Winslet all join the cast."Avatar: The Way of Water" hits theaters December 16, 2022.
