Director James Cameron and his crew begin filming sequel of epic science-fiction film 'Avatar' in New Zealand as country opens up after curbing Covid-19
Canadian director James Cameron and US producer Jon Landau pose for a photo, while arriving at Wellington International Airport to resume the filming of the Avatar sequels, as New Zealand eases restrictions imposed over the global outbreak of the coronavirus disease in Wellington, New Zealand on May 31, 2020
New Zealand's borders remain closed to foreigners but the government gave special pe rmission for the 55 crew members working on the "Avatar" sequel to jet in on a chartered plane. It was a great success and the virus has been almost eliminated in New Zealand, which could be among the first countries in the world to return to normal this week, apart from the closed border.
With people around the world cooped up at home, pressure is on film-makers and other content creators to make new material and get it out. Wellington is home to multi-million dollar studios and production facilities including director Peter Jackson's Weta Digital, where "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" trilogies were brought to life.But the open door for Cameron and his crew has raised some eyebrows. Opposition party leaders have questioned why they breezed in while families are still separated and businesses are struggling without key staff.
