UPDATE: Laz Alonso has just announced an exciting tribute to Tsu’tey in the upcoming film Avatar: Fire and Ash, set to hit theaters on December 19, 2025. The actor tantalizingly hinted at a “little treat” for fans of the beloved Na’vi character, who played a crucial role in the original Avatar film.
In a recent post from the world premiere event, Alonso shared images from the red carpet and expressed his enthusiasm for the film, describing it as “a full circle moment.” He emphasized the film’s qualities, calling it “beautiful, suspenseful, heartfelt,” and urged fans to see it upon release.
While many speculate about a possible return for Tsu’tey, who tragically died in battle alongside Jake Sully (played by Sam Worthington), Alonso’s phrasing suggests that viewers can expect a significant reference or Easter egg honoring Tsu’tey’s legacy rather than a revival of the character. Despite Tsu’tey’s absence since 2009, his impact on Jake and Neytiri’s journey remains profound, making this nod particularly poignant.
This tribute aligns with director James Cameron‘s statement that Fire and Ash serves as “a culmination of a saga.” Although further sequels are planned, Cameron has indicated that this film marks the conclusion of the story that began with the first Avatar movie, underscoring the importance of acknowledging Tsu’tey’s role in this narrative arc.
Alonso, who has continued to build his career since portraying Tsu’tey, remains a vocal supporter of the franchise, praising the latest installment. His excitement reflects the enduring connection fans have with the character and the series.
As anticipation builds for Avatar: Fire and Ash, an emotional tribute to Tsu’tey could resonate deeply with audiences familiar with his journey. With the film’s release just months away, fans are eager for any further details about how this beloved character will be honored.
Stay tuned for more updates as the premiere date approaches, as fans and newcomers alike prepare for this epic continuation of the Avatar saga. Don’t miss out on what promises to be a cinematic event filled with emotion and nostalgia.
