Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves star Michelle Rodriguez has revealed that James Cameron had thought of reviving her Avatar character in a future installment.
While talking with Vanity Fair, Rodriguez talked about that she just lately spoke with Avatar director James Cameron. The director apparently pitched Rodriguez the concept of her character, Trudy Chacon, coming again after dying within the first Avatar film. The actress defined that her character died as a martyr, and after having a lot of her characters return from the lifeless, it could be “overkill” to revive Trudy.
“Dude, when I saw Jim [Cameron] recently, he was like, ‘I was thinking, What if Michelle came back? A lot of the other characters came back [in The Way of Water].’ I was like, ‘You can’t do that — I died as a martyr. Jim, I came back in Resident Evil, I wasn’t supposed to. I came back in Machete, I wasn’t supposed to. I came back with Letty, I wasn’t supposed to. We can’t do a fourth, that would be overkill,’” Rodriguez mentioned. “I don’t understand, it’s so weird. I guess they don’t know what to do with the girl who doesn’t have a boyfriend. ‘She doesn’t have a boyfriend. Should we keep her alive, or kill her?’”
Rodriguez can presently be seen in Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, which was written and directed by Game Night duo Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley and is now enjoying in theaters.
Avatar 3 is tentatively scheduled for December 20, 2024. Further sequels even have launch dates, with Avatar 4 set for December 18, 2026, and Avatar 5 on December 22, 2028.
