'Avatar: Fire and Ash' is set to hit theaters on Dec. 19. Meanwhile, the fourth and fifth 'Avatar' films are set for Dec. 21, 2029, and Dec. 19, 2031, respectively.
The trailer was first revealed exclusively to CinemaCon attendees back in April. The footage returns to the lush world of Pandora and introduces two new Na'vi tribes: The soaring Wind Traders, who traverse the skies on contraptions resembling hot air balloons, and their sworn rivals, the Fire People, who ride on flying beasts. The two clans clash, and one Na'vi is taken out with a flaming arrow.
'We can not live like this, baby,' Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) tells his wife Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña) in the trailer. 'We can not live with this hate.'
'Fire and Ash' picks up directly after 'The Way of Water,' which followed Jake and his family as they team with Pandora's water tribe, known as the Metkayina, to fight against the tyrannical Resources Development Administration. The new films see them pinned against the Ash People, who have defected from Jake's Na'vi clan and their nature-worshipping religion.
'Avatar' and 'The Way of Water' both grossed over $2 billion at the worldwide box office, making them the No. 1 and No. 3 most commercially successful films of all time worldwide. If 'Fire and Ash' follows suit, 'Avatar' will be the only franchise to have three films cross the $2 billion threshold.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps post-credits scenes, explained
Marvel's favourite family is officially back on the big screen as they join in on the Marvel Cinematic Universe and give us a glimpse at their retro-futuristic Earth as they face off against Galactus in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. While this does mean that we won't see them interact with our other favorite heroes, we still have to wonder how it'll all connect with the rest of the MCU as we get closer to Avengers: Doomsday. So does the film's post-credit scenes offer up any clues? Here's everything you need to know about the end-credit scenes in The Fantastic Four: First Steps. They might be from a different Earth, but The Fantastic Four know a thing or do about tradition. Not only does The Fantastic Four: First Steps include a mid-credits scene, but there's also a fun surprise if you wait all the way until the end. Like we mentioned, there is one mid-credit scene and another in the post-credits. In a big surprise, we're suddenly sent four years in the future where we see Sue Storm reading to Franklin on the couch. As they finish up another read, she sets out to find his favourite book with the help of H.E.R.B.I.E., who actually has a really funny suggestion for the book that Franklin might want to check out next. She finds the book in the kitchen, but feels that something is off when she returns back to the living room. Sue activates her powers as she tries to see what is happening behind the TV that's in the middle of the room when we suddenly see Doctor Doom (!!!) playing with Franklin. While we don't see their face, we do see him sporting the iconic green cloak while holding their mask in their hand. Immediately the screen goes to black and shows the words: 'The Fantastic Four Will Return in Avengers: Doomsday' After getting our heart pumping with that big hint, we get a different kind of surprise for the post-credit scene. Throughout the entire film, we have heard about The Fantastic Four cartoon and even got to see some glimpses of it. But now, we got to see the whole opening theme song including a catchphrase from our favourite clobberin' hero. It might not be a huge look at the future of the series, but it is still a fun way to end a great film! And, don't forget, The Fantastic Four were already featured in the post-credit scenes for Thunderbolts*, so we already know that a big link-up was going to happen. Hopefully we find out more real soon!

Jessica Alba, ‘Top Gun: Maverick' actor spend time in Cancun as she embraces single life: report
Jessica Alba appears to be enjoying her summer after filing for divorce from her estranged husband, Cash Warren. Alba, 44, sparked romance rumors after she was spotted boarding a plane headed back to Los Angeles from Cancun with "Captain America" star Danny Ramirez, TMZ reported. The outlet reported that the two spent time together in the sun-soaked town. Despite the reported quick getaway, sources told People magazine that Alba isn't dating anyone seriously, and is instead relishing in her new role as a single woman months after the "Honey" actress petitioned a Los Angeles court to end her 16-year marriage. In video obtained by TMZ, Ramirez, 32, and the "Fantastic Four" actress both attempted to go incognito by wearing snapback hats as they left Mexico for L.A. on Sunday afternoon. Upon arrival in the City of Angels, Alba and Ramirez walked closely together as they were escorted through a private terminal by a security guard. Alba and Ramirez's representatives did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. Ramirez portrayed Lt. Mickey "Fanboy" Garcia in "Top Gun: Maverick," and played Falcon in "Captain America: Brave New World." He'll reprise his Marvel character for "Avengers: Doomsday," which also stars Robert Downey Jr., Pedro Pascal and Chris Hemsworth. Alba has reportedly been on a few dates since announcing her split from Warren in February, insiders told People. "She's been getting a lot of attention since the divorce. She's flattered and definitely enjoying being single again," sources said. "She's gone on some dates, but it's nothing serious — she's focused on herself and her kids. She's not interested in a relationship right now." The mother-of-three is "excited" to dive back into work, and will soon begin filming "The Mark" in Australia with Orlando Bloom, who recently ended his engagement with Katy Perry. "She's in a great place. She's excited to get back to filming. She's doing what she loves and keeping her circle tight," the source told People. In January, the Honest Co. founder announced her split from Warren after 20 years together. "I've been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years – both as an individual and in partnership with Cash," she wrote on Instagram. "I'm proud of how we've grown as a couple and in our marriage over the last 20 years and it's now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals." She added, "We are moving forward with love and kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family. Our children remain our highest priority and we request privacy at this time." Alba and Warren met on the set of "Fantastic Four" in 2004 and tied the knot in 2008. In the divorce petition filed in February and obtained by Fox News Digital, the pair requested joint custody of their three children — Honor, 16; Haven, 13; and Hayes, 7.
