'It's a tricky thing,' Cameron, 70, said. 'We could be getting high on our own supply here, and everybody who looks at it goes, 'F', that's not what I signed up for.' '

He added: 'But if you're not making brave choices, you're wasting everybody's time and money. That alone is not sufficient to create success, but it's necessary. You've got to break the mold every time.'

The filmmaker also reveals that audiences are in for intense situations, even though they may get taken to places they won't expect, it will feel earned, people.com.

'We have some really clever action set-pieces. You can get your blood up in this movie. But what excites me as an artist who recently turned 70 and has kind of done all that stuff is not only the opportunity to get to do it again, but to get to a level of character and intrigue you haven't seen before in an Avatar movie.'

Cameron said the film is in 'strong shape' especially compared to his other 'Avatar film, Avatar: The Way of Water'.

'We've doubled the number of shots finished at this stage of the game than we had on movie two (and) the films are about equal length. So that puts us well ahead of the curve, which is something I've never, frankly, experienced before.'

'We're getting to the point where we're actually getting good at this,' he said with a laugh.
