Avatar 2's Sigourney Weaver reveals preparation for her unique new character
Weaver added that she also felt a wide range of emotions about tackling this role, saying:"But I was very honoured, too, and thrilled, excited, terrified."
For the voice and motion capture role, Weaver started to observe classes of teenagers that were around the same age as her character, to figure out how to approach this part. "Luckily there was a long time to prepare," she continued,"and I went to high school classes and a few other things, so I could hear the pitch of their voices, and there's a big range of who an adolescent is between 12 and 15."This gave Weaver a starting point for the character, which she combined with her own personal experience of adolescence.
She added:"Once I saw that, I was like, 'okay, I can let Kiri come out'. Whoever that is, combined with who I was at 14. It was sort of like a muddle. "It gave me so much to work with, and by the time I got there, I just so enjoyed leaving this shell behind, and becoming this sometimes brat."Shop Sky deals across TV, broadband and mobile
