There are still 8 months before the release ofAvatar: Fire and Ash (December 17 in France), and the wait becomes seriously endless. There First trailer Unveiled a few days ago during the Comiccon still promises a big show, but we do not know when it is put online for the public.

Good news, Payakan will be back in Avatar 3. And he will even have a more important role than expected, as Richard Baneham, the head of special effects and executive producer tells, to the magazine which reveals a new concept art of the film:

“”He turned out to be one of the most popular characters. The public’s reaction encouraged us to go further and push Payakan at the highest level.“”

As a reminder, Tulkun are a kind of species of Pandora whale, endowed with great intelligence and capable of communicating with the NA’VI. In The voice of waterPayakan has a link with Lo’ak, one of Jake’s two sons. Their friendship will be always present, but Payakan will also have a Tulkun girlfriend, Ta’nok, “another pariah“, According to Baneham.”There is really a super dynamic between them.“”
