Avatar: Fire and Ash has revealed its runtime ahead of its release in cinemas on 19th December – and it’s the longest film in the series so far.
The film, which is the third entry in James Cameron’s long-running blockbuster franchise, will clock in at a whopping three hours and 15 minutes.
That’s three minutes longer than the previous entry, 2022’s The Way of Water, which had a hefty runtime of three hours and 12 minutes.
Cameron previously explained why Avatar: Fire and Ash will be longer than its predecessors.
Speaking to Empire magazine earlier this year, he said: "In a nutshell, we had too many great ideas packed into act one of movie 2. The [film] was moving like a bullet train, and we weren't drilling down enough on character. So I said, 'Guys, we've got to split it.'"
He added: "Movie 3 will actually be a little bit longer than movie 2."
Despite The Way of Water’s critical and financial success, some fans were quick to complain about the film’s three-hour runtime.
Defending its length, Cameron told Empire: “I don’t want anybody whining about length when they sit and binge-watch [television] for eight hours. I can almost write this part of the review. 'The agonisingly long three-hour movie…’ It’s like, give me a f*****g break."
He added: “I’ve watched my kids sit and do five one-hour episodes in a row. Here’s the big social paradigm shift that has to happen: It’s okay to get up and go pee.”
Avatar: Fire and Ash will introduce fans to a new Na'vi clan known as the Ash People, set to be the antagonists in the new movie.
A trailer was released for the new film back in July, teasing epic battle sequences, as well as giving fans a first look at the fiery leader of the new clan, Varang (Oona Chaplin).
