Will there be an Avatar 2? If so, will it include the same characters? -Jonathan Clarke, Taipei If we make a sequel, we'll definitely continue the story of the main characters: Sam [Worthington] and Zoe [Saldana] and Sigourney [Weaver]. Well, I don't know about Sigourney. Sigourney's character is dead, but nobody's really ever dead in a science-fiction movie. I think it's more of a question of when than...
...Avatar wouldn't connect so broadly and deeply with audiences if the central relationship of Jake (Sam Worthington), the crippled Marine, and Neytiri (Zoe Saldana), daughter of the Na'vi tribal chief, weren't plausible and inviting. Like Titanic, this is a love story enveloped by catastrophe. That's why Hollywood's anxiety about the movie's supposedly limited appeal to both sexes was needless. Indeed, Avatar's closest kin among current hits may be The Blind Side, the female-skewing sports film. Both tell stories of strong women who find rootless young men and give them a purpose around...
...sense memory. To help them feel an explosion, he boomed a noise over amplifiers, threw foam particles at them and whacked them with a padded jousting pole.

When Zoe Saldana, who plays Jake's Na'vi love interest Neytiri, was "riding" a flying creature, she clung to a giant gray hobbyhorse rocked on a gimbal by grips. For scenes that combined live action with CG, Cameron used a new tool called a Simulcam, which allowed him to see actors playing...
...First up is Spock (Zachary Quinto, a slightly sexier version of Leonard Nimoy), who was bullied on Vulcan for having a human mother (Winona Ryder, seemingly still in character and costume from a Grey Gardens audition) and chose to take refuge in the Starfleet Academy. Then comes Uhura (Zoe Saldana), who rejects Kirk's leering come-on with just the crisp efficiency you'd expect...
While most Harvard students see an undergraduate degree as their road to prestige, Francisco Saldana and Victor Cabrera started elsewhere at the University: working in the Leverett House dining hall. They left Harvard in 2001 for Puerto Rico and have since become the production kings of reggaeton. As Luny Tunes, they have produced a string of hits, including Daddy Yankee’s “Gasolina,” Don Omar’s “Dale Don Dale,” and several remixes of Paris Hilton’s “Stars are Blind...
