Will Avatar 4 Set Up the Final Battle?
Avatar: Fire and Ash, the third movie in James Cameron’s epic series, just wrapped up its huge clash on Pandora. Fans are buzzing about whether this sets the stage for the biggest showdown yet in Avatar 4. Let’s break it down in simple terms based on what happens at the end of Fire and Ash.
The movie’s final battle kicks off with the Tulkun, those giant whale-like creatures, turning the tables on the RDA humans. They smash into the enemy ships, causing tons of damage and shifting the fight in favor of the Na’vi. Check out this breakdown from Collider: https://collider.com/avatar-fire-and-ash-ending-explained/. It feels like a big win, but is it really Pandora’s last stand?
Not quite. The story hints at bigger threats coming. Jake Sully tells his son Lo’ak to follow orders early on, but Lo’ak proves there’s value in thinking outside the box during fights. Kiri starts off scared and closed off, but she grows through the movie. Meanwhile, the villain starts using ash as body paint, looking less human and more like he’s breaking away from his commanders. He even disobeys orders from Ed Falco, just like Jake did way back in the first film.
A key theory points to Miles Quaritch, the human-turned-recombinant. By the end, he’s shedding his old human side. Like Jake in Avatar 1, he might fully switch teams and help the Na’vi against the humans. One analysis predicts this: if humans arrive by the millions, the Na’vi are in real trouble, but Quaritch could be their unlikely savior.

These moments build tension for Avatar 4. Quaritch making his own rules and ditching his past screams redemption arc. The Na’vi win this round, but the foreshadowing shows humans won’t stop. Pandora’s survival hangs on alliances shifting and new fights brewing.
