Yeoh’s character, Dr. Karina Mogue, sat out of Avatar: The Way of Water, but she was expected to debut in the upcoming sequel, Avatar: Fire & Ash.

She’s in 4 and 5,” Cameron told EW. “So that got a little bit misreported. She will be coming in soon to do her part, which is an interesting, fun character. I mean, we’re getting ahead of ourselves now. This whole thing has been planned for years and years. The scripts were all written years ago, through the end of movie 5.

This UI overhaul arrives sometime in mid-October, but a specific date was not given for the big change.The new UI will introduce a Call of Duty landing zone where top content will be visible on one clean page without needing to scroll.
