"All I mean is, we have two confirmed actors that we know very little about, and that does not give an idea of what the movie will actually be like."
And one of them is a white girl playing a dark skinned, dark haired character who looks rather Indian (katara).
Did you know that Shyamalan discovered Avatar through his daughter? She wanted to dress up as Katara for Halloween.
I don't know what his daughter looks like but if she looks anything like him...I'm going to say she identified with Katara because Katara looks Indian. I know I would have when I was little (I'm dark haired and dark skinned too).
I don't know how this movie will do, but I gotta say this casting is disappointing to me. I wanted a bit more variety there.
