To wait until the outlet ofAvatar 3 In the cinema, on December 17, the British magazine Empire has promised an exlu per month to its readers. After revealing the first details on The new clansthat of the ashes led by Varang (Oona Chaplin) and the wind merchants, here are some revelations on Peylak, a NA’VI who arrives in the plot and which is played by David Thewlis.

At 61, this English actor touches everything (we also saw him comfortable in The Big LebowskiCoen brothers, or Seven years in Tibetby Jean-Jacques Annaud, that in blockbusters such as Dragon Heart Or Harry Pottersaga for which he embodied Remus Lupine from the 3rd episode) was hired several years ago to join the saga, but James Cameron and his teams kept secret on his role. In the summer of 2020, he said about Peylak:

“I am a na’vi, I am a blue thing – which I had not really understood the day I (Cameron) met it. I was quite surprised when I was offered the film. I can’t wait to see how I’m going to appear because they make them look like the actors a bit.

I have no idea what my scenes will give, because there are about 16 guys in the room with cameras, but they only make reference plans for Jim (Cameron) who will look at them later. What these guys will never be on the screen, what is filmed is obviously on these sensors. There are about 200 in the room. For the first time, I felt like a new little one, as if it was my first role (…) I was on the set and after working for 35 years on filming, I said to myself: ‘But what are we doing? ‘ (laughs) I felt very naive. And of course I was, because none of the rules I learned applied here. ”

“It is a joyful, happy people, they are colorful, and when they arrive in our film, everyone is happy to see them.”

Peylak is their chef, so he had to be also colorful, including his sunset cape.

“Originally, the cape was a little more rough, a little more rustic, Details Scott. But as all the clans developed, Jim said: ‘I find that it is not large enough.’ So I turned around and reinvented it. “
