AVATAR

Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Joel David Moore, CCH Pounder and Matt Gerald are returning for the sequels, which have also added Oona Chaplin and Cliff Curtis.

She joins returning stars Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Stephen Lang, Sigourney Weaver and Joel David Moore, as well as fellow franchise newcomer Cliff Curtis.

We fell for Cliff Curtis following his brief turn as Smiley in Training Day, though the New Zealand-born actor was also really good in Danny Boyle’s Sunshine. And did you know he produced a pair of Taika Waititi films before the director graduated to the Marvel universe?

Robert Rodriguez is in talks to direct the live-action adaptation of Alita: Battle Angel. James Cameron and Jon Landau will produce the feature for Twentieth Century Fox. The original magna follows a female cyborg rescued from the scrap heap by a scientist in the twenty-sixth century.

More actors enlist to reprise their roles as the big blue beings from Pandora.

Logline: A paraplegic marine dispatched to the moon Pandora on a unique mission becomes torn between following his orders and protecting the world he feels is his home.
