Avatar director James Cameron required Kate Winslet to hold breath underwater for seven minutes in watery sequels

James Cameron has provided an update on the status of his numerous Avatar sequels – and revealed the extent to which cast addition Kate Winslet went to pull off her new role.

The filmmaker, who is currently filming the first and second of the four planned follow-ups, teased that his forthcoming return to the world of Pandora will explore “never before seen parts” which will primarily be set underwater.
