So many incredibly talented people came together to make Avatar: The Way of Water. I'm proud and humbled to get to work with these amazing folks, and to share in the credits with them. To be part of Wētā FX/Wētā Digital's deep and varied collective feels surreal in the best way.

I'm thrilled to have been part of making this movie!

Come join Wētā FX, now in #Vancouver! Join great colleagues doing great work in a beautiful place!
