L os Angeles : ‘Avatar 2’ director James Cameron and the movie’s cast lived in a Hawaiian rainforest “for a few days” while making the motion picture.
Cameron said: “I took the actors on what I called a sense-memory odyssey. We went to Kauai. We lived in the rainforest for a few days. We cooked in underground fire pits. We drank water from the leaves.” The filmmaker encouraged the cast to remember how they walked up steep sections of the rainforest and what the area smelt like, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
Speaking to Variety, he added: “I said, ‘All right, we’re going to walk up a trail and I want you to observe as much as you can about how you place your feet, how you place your hands when you go up a steep section. You’re going to have to remember it, what it felt like, what it smelled like, and you’re going to have to bring it back into a relatively sterile environment.’ “We all just embarked on that journey.” Cameron recently shared ‘Avatar 2’ – the follow-up to his 2009 blockbuster – needs to “make a lot of money”.
