  • Over a decade since the release of Avatar, James Cameron is taking audiences back to Pandora in Avatar: The Way of Water. The Resources Development Administration left defeated in 2009, but now they're returning to the moon and they're bringing reinforcements. One of the RDA’s new tactics is to use an elite team of soldiers known as Recombinants, deceased RDA soldiers in avatar bodies. That's how Stephen Lang's Colonel Miles Quaritch returns. He was indeed killed in the first film, but in Way of Water, he's Recom Colonel Miles Quaritch.
    Given the fact that Recoms retain their living counterpart's memories, it should come as no surprise that Recom Quaritch is determined to find and kill Jake Sully (Sam Worthington). Given the target on his back, Jake determines it's best for the Sully family to flee the forest of the Omaticaya clan and find safety elsewhere. With Quaritch hot on their trail, Jake, Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña), and their three children seek refuge with the Metkayina clan ruled by Kate Winslet’s Ronal and her partner Tonowari played Cliff Curtis.
    In celebration of The Way of Water’s December 16th theatrical release, Collider’s Perri Nemiroff spoke with Lang about bringing Quaritch, or a version of him, back to the big screen. During their conversation, Lang walked us through original Quaritch's likely response to first being asked to participate in the Recom program and if he thinks Recom Quaritch is redeemable.

    Colonel Quadrich is the star of Avatar imo. Nailed every seen man

      That would be amazing. They would need to use CGI to make him look younger and more muscular though. He's 70 now.

    Clearly a very smart guy just from his speech, the words he chooses. "Will he nil he" instead of "willy-nilly" showing he understands the classical meaning of the phrase. Perri continues to impress me with her insightfulness and energy, she's very good at talking with these celebrities and seems to really value their input.

    Stephen Lang has a very deep, powerful voice that commands respect so I can see why he became Hollywoods Go-to Bad Guy after the first film. A shame he's already 70 years old, I would've liked to see Disney cast him as both Commander Rourke and Amos Slade in the live action Atlantis and Fox & The Hound.

      Absolutely! After all, anyone invading another person's home, slaughtering their family and stealing their stuff is ALWAYS the hero.
      As a Christian, this whole 'humans are the good guys in Avatar' take has got to be the most asinine, sickening take I've ever seen in my life. Good lord. This is just psychotic.
