James
Cameron's
Avatar
will
now
hit
the
theaters
in
the
summer
of
2009.
It
was
earlier
scheduled
for
the
summer
of
2008.
This
sci-fi
movie
narrates
the
story
of
Jake;
a
paraplegic
war
veteran
who
is
brought
to
another
planet,
Pandora,
which
is
inhabited
by
the
Na'vi,
a
humanoid
race,
with
their
own
language
and
culture.
Those
from
Earth
find
themselves
at
odds
with
each
other
and
the
local
culture.
In an interview, the Titanic director said 'Avatar is a very ambitious sci-fi movie. It's a futuristic tale set on a planet 200 years hence. It's an old-fashioned jungle adventure with an environmental conscience.'
'I'll spend many months completing the special effects on Avatar, and it will not be released until the summer of 2009. It's quite a challenge - and for that reason, I embrace it,' adds Cameron.
