The Biggest Sci-Fi News Of The Week Is All About Avatar And What We’re In For On Pandora
We've got some directing news too!
It’s Thursday, and in addition to it being dangerously close to the weekend, that means it’s time to talk about the biggest sci-fi news of the week. Every Thursday, we’re going to be right here hitting you up with a new video running down all the latest rumblings from around the galaxy. So, if a swamp is overflowing on Naboo, we’ll give you an alternate route for your landspeeder. If the Harfoots and the Fallohides are beefing, we’ll tell you which side to be on. If there’s a Defense Of The Dark Arts position open, we’ll run down the rumored candidates, all of whom will be disasters.
We’re here to make sure you’re up on the latest in sci-fi, fantasy and thought-provoking, otherworldly entertainment, and we’re doing it in partnership with Prime Video. The streaming favorite is rolling out the much-anticipated second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power and fans are hyped, especially after watching the latest trailer. You’ll be able to watch Sauron’s rise during the Second Age of Middle-earth on August 29th.
Until then, you can check out the first episode of The Biggest Sci-Fi News Of The Week. In the inaugural edition, we’re talking all things Avatar. Beloved director James Cameron is hard at work on not one, not two but three squeals. Avatars 3 through 5 are all in some stage of development, and we've got everything from updates on casting to updates on directing to updates on the "vicious cycle" of a plot we'll be getting. You can check it all out below...
