Jemaine Clement Joins Cast of ‘Avatar 2’

 

James Cameron‘s sequel to the 2009 hit Avatar may be appearing sooner than expected. While the initial cast is expected to return, many are curious about who else could potentially join the world of Pandora. Luckily, Flight of the Conchords and Moana actor, Jemaine Clement has been cast in a role for the upcoming film.

Clement will be playing a role of a Marine Biologist known as Dr. Ian Garvin. Not much else has been stated about Jemaine’s role, including whether or not his character is a protagonist or antagonist. James Cameron did however express a lot of interest working with the comedic actor. Cameron stated that “I’ve loved Jemaine’s work for years and I’m really pumped that he’s joining our cast as Ian Garvin, one of my favorite characters,”. Jemaine Clement has been very well liked as an actor from many of his roles, so with him being in a high profile sequel to something like Avatar, there will certainly be some interest in regards to his role in the film.

Clement co-created comedic mockumentary hit What We Do in the Shadows and is now a writer, executive producer, and director for the TV show adaptation on FX. He is also a recurring character on FX’s Legion. 

Avatar 2 is set to release on December 17th 2021.

Ryan Pineda: When it comes to film, animation, video games and other mediums, I can discuss for hours about how much on why certain films and animated media made me the person I am today. I adore the artistic merit that comes from a lot of pop-culture media and will definitely love to have a conversation about favorite movies any day! I have graduated in 2017 with a BA in Film and Television at the University of Arizona. Been passionate about writing about films due to always having an interesting outlook on the medium. Will always see a film and will definitely be sure to recommend it to someone that I know for a fact would love that movie. Not only that but will also give reasons for why I think that film did or did not work as a movie, and the same can go for other pieces of media like television, video games and especially animated projects.
