This is also our first look at her Ronal character which Winslet describes in her own words as a “water person.” 

Avatar 2” marks the second time Winslet has collaborated with James Cameron since the release of blockbuster hit “Titanic” in 1997. According to an interview she did for The Hollywood Reporter, the actress said, “I had to learn how to free-dive to play that role in Avatar, and that was just incredible … My longest breath hold was seven minutes and 14 seconds, like crazy, crazy stuff.” 

Not much has been revealed about the plot details for the upcoming movie, but it has been revealed that the sequel takes place 13 years after the events of the first movie. Jake and Neytiri will have to travel to Pandora’s oceans and meet with the sea-dwelling Metkayina clan in order to protect their family.
