    Pandora's skies. But the Sullys' path is threatened by a new enemy -
    the Ash People, a warlike clan led by the fierce Varang, who have
    turned against Eywa and the ancient Na'vi way," reads the film's
    official synopsis.

    What other bonus features are included in the Avatar: Fire and Ash
    home release?
    Listed below are the special features included in Avatar 3's home
    video release:
    - English Family Audio Track: All objectionable language removed.
    - Igniting the Flame: The Making of Avatar: Fire and Ash - A series
    of featurettes that explores the filmmakers' journey making
    Avatar: Fire and Ash with exclusive behind-the-scenes footage
    and insights about the process from the creative talents who
    shaped the film.
    - Writing the Sequels: In 2013, James Cameron gathered a team of
    top screenwriters to craft a vision for the Avatar sequels.
    Together they created an ambitious saga that weaves new stories,
    clans, biomes, creatures and, most importantly, a family for Jake
    and Neytiri.
    - Pandoran Design: Production Designer Dylan Cole and his team
    tackle their biggest design challenge: creating a vivid world and
    culture for the new clans, the Wind Traders and the Ash People,
    and the creatures that share their world.
    - RDA Design: Production Designer Ben Procter and his team of
    concept artists and art directors showcase the sets of Bridgehead
    and the RDA. From concept art to over 70 sets, Procter's designs
    set the stage for many of the film's action scenes.
    - The Women of Pandora: Dive deeper into James Cameron's fiercest
    Na'vi warriors with the powerhouse actors that define these epic
    roles.
    - Varang and the Mangkwan: Like every aspect of the Avatar films,
    Varang and the Mangkwan are a melding of talents, from character
    and scenic design to costumes and body art, but most distinctive
    is the performance by Oona Chaplin. Discover how she approached
    her role.
    - Capturing Performance: Cameron and his cast take the "freedom to
    imagine" on Avatar's capture stage. The characters come to life
    instinctively as actors rely on their connection to each other,
    rather than the physical trappings of lighting, costumes, and
    sets.
    - Stunts: Second unit director Garrett Warren takes us inside the
    action of Fire and Ash. If you see it in the film, his stunt team
    did it for real: climbing, falling, fighting, shooting, swimming,
    and even dogfighting on ikrans.
    - Editing and Virtual Camera: On the Avatar films, Editorial is the
    quiet hero of production. Discover the editors' complex process of
    transforming filmed "scenes" from the capture stage into
    performance edits, camera loads, shots, templates, and finally, a
    finished film.
    - WETA FX: W-ot-U FX tackles the monumental task of rendering every
    shot in photoreal detail. Fire and Ash is bigger and more complex
    than any film before it, with giant set pieces, virtual characters,
    dynamic creatures, and vivid effects.
    - ILM: ILM undertakes a pair of key scenes: Jake's imprisonment in a
    thanator cage, and his thrilling escape on the gritty tarmac of
    Bridgehead.
    - Score: Composer Simon Franglen takes us behind the scenes of his
    thrilling score for FIRE AND ASH, capturing the majestic beauty of
    the Wind Traders and the unsettling world of the Mangkwan. Also
    hear from Miley Cyrus on her hit single, "Dream As One."
    - The Art and Impact of 3D: James Cameron takes us inside 3D, a
    critical component of the Avatar films. Audiences feel the immense
    scope of Pandora, not just through the breadth of the movie screen,
    but in the endless depth enabled by stereoscopic filming.
    - Home in New Zealand: Though Fire and Ash's live action filming was
    centralized in one cozy corner of Wellington, vendors from all
    parts of New Zealand banded together to build the sets, costumes,
    props, and even working maritime vessels.
    - Jon Landau Tribute: If James Cameron is the guiding vision for the
    Avatar sequels, producer Jon Landau was their nurturing heart. In
    this warm tribute, the filmmakers celebrate a beloved friend and
    colleague with remembrances from cast and crew.
    - RDA Orientation: Do you have what it takes to survive the wild
    frontier of Pandora? In these tutorial videos, the RDA provides
    essential training in Na'vi language and an intelligence briefing
    on the clans of Pandora and the biomes they inhabit.
    - Na'vi 101: The RDA's Official Language Orientation: Before you set
    foot on Pandora, the RDA requires personnel to complete Na'vi
    language training. This video covers the basics of Na'vi -
    greetings, key phrases, proper pronunciation, and cultural mores.
    Trust us: say it right or pay the price.
    - Pandora Intelligence Brief: Prepare for deployment with this
    essential RDA orientation video designed to give new recruits a
    tactical edge when navigating the uncharted territories of Pandora.
    This isn't just a new world. It's a new frontier.
    - Marketing Materials & Music Video - Marketing materials used to
    build audience awareness of the film.
    - "Dream as One" Music Video: Multi Grammy-winning superstar Miley
    Cyrus performs her emotional end-title ballad, "Dream as One," in
    the official music video.
    - Theatrical Trailer 1: New clans, new villains. The Sully family
    fights to survive. Watch trailer 1 now.
    - Theatrical Trailer 2: The Pandoran world goes deeper than you can
    imagine.
