So the “Songcord” song that Zoe Saldaña sings as Neytiri was the first thing the composer wrote, in early 2018, before shooting began. “I wrote pages and pages of lyrics,” he says, all in the Na'vi language invented for the first film. “Basically she sings about the family births,” he explains.
Weeknd recorded the final vocals for the song in Los Angeles, while the orchestral portions were recorded at the Newman Scoring Stage, during the final scoring sessions in November 2022.
"I See You (Theme from Avatar)" (also referred to as "I See You") is the official theme song recorded by British singer Leona Lewis for the 2009 film Avatar, directed by James Cameron, and its accompanying soundtrack (2009).

How old is Neytiri in Navi Years?
For one, even if Neytiri is 18 in human years, she's the Na'vi equivalent of a human in their early-to-mid-twenties. This is proven in three different ways: James Cameron has stated that Jake's avatar body is around 17 human years old.
Lil Mosey did not have a cameo in Avatar 2 despite online speculation and memes about his appearance in the film. The character of Rotxo, who resembled the rapper, was actually played by Duane Evans, Jr. Director James Cameron, known for his cameos, provided a voiceover in Avatar: The Way of Water.
What I take from all that is, Zoe did learn all of Nina Simone's songs (at least, those that might be used in the film) and she performed them as well, doing all her own singing. But, Oyelowo doesn't seem entirely certain that the sequences in which Zoe sings will end up in the completed film.
"Nothing Is Lost (You Give Me Strength)" is a song by Canadian singer-songwriter the Weeknd. It was released by XO, Hollywood Records and Republic Records on December 15, 2022, as the lead single of the soundtrack for the epic science fiction action-adventure film Avatar: The Way of Water (2022).
The album features 13 tracks by Horner who also composed the soundtrack of Cameron's previous blockbuster Titanic in 1997. Celine Dion sang the title track "My heart will go on," which went on to become the best-selling single in 1998.
Ninat is a Na'vi of the Omatikaya clan. She is mentioned by Neytiri as the best singer of the clan, suggesting her to Jake Sully as a potential mate. Jake replies, "I don't want Ninat." It is unknown if she survived the destruction of the Hometree and the assault on the Tree of Souls, leaving her status unknown.
Nothing Is Lost (You Give Me Strength) is the main theme for Avatar: The Way of Water performed by The Weeknd (Abel Makkonen Tesfaye). It was included on the soundtrack for the film.
However, following the announcement in May 2019 of three new Star Wars films, the sequels' release dates were pushed back by two years, with Avatar 3, being scheduled to be released on December 22, 2023.
Written and performed by The Weeknd, and produced by Swedish House Mafia along with Simon Franglen, the track is a pounding battle call celebrating life, death and resilience.
With Avatar progressively getting bigger and bigger, it seems the show is only beginning. WOUB's Nicholas Kobe got to chat with Avatar's ringleader and lead singer Johannes Eckerström before the group's performance at the Louder Than Life Festival in Louisville.
Leona Lewis sang the theme song, "I See You". An accompanying music video, directed by Jake Nava, premiered on MySpace on December 15, 2009. A bonus track called "Into the Na'vi World" is available exclusively through the official site.
Zoe Saldana is a Hollywood powerhouse known for her roles in some of the biggest sci-fi franchises and highest-grossing films of all time. All the blockbusters she has starred in have a combined box office of over $14 billion! Saldana's journey began on the stage.
Coded around Hollywood and WWE legend Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, the creators actually wanted the character to be played by the Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle alum. It almost happened, until the the now-actor's agents informed the creators that Johnson was not interested in television at that point.
Unless that theory is true, Grace was impregnated by someone. Kiri's brothers joke that the scientist Norm could be her father. The movie does not reveal much information about the birth of Kiri. It is unclear whether Kiri was conceived before Grace died and her avatar carried her to term.
In Avatar, the Na'vi are an indigenous species that live on Pandora. They are humanoid in appearance and are 9 to 10 feet (2.7 to 3.0 m) tall, having pairs of eyes, ears, arms, legs and feet like humans, as well as a nose, a mouth, and expressions recognizable to humans.
Her father is not a father, her father is another mother, Eywa, the Great Mother, the sentient life force of Pandora itself that exists in all things there, but is rarely understood. So essentially yes, Kiri was born from Eywa just like Anakin Skywalker was allegedly conceived by the Force itself and its midichlorians.
It was only when Lo'ak insisted that Neteyam agreed to the rescue. Neteyam risked his life and perished in order to save Lo'ak and Spider from Quaritch. As Jake himself said: "A son for a son". Spider wept for Neteyam as he died as well.
In Avatar 2, Tuk is the youngest of the Sully children. The biological daughter of Jake and Neytiri, she is merely eight years old. Since Tuk is only a child, everyone in the family is extremely protective of her.
