Jono, Ben & Megan - The Podcast

In this special bonus episode, Sienna and her dad Ben headed to Wellington (by plane - not flying creature) for the Avatar: Fire & Ash premiere. They sat down with legendary director James Cameron to chat about borrowing his Avatar pool, how Avatar first came to him in a dream, whether he’d change anything about Titanic if he made it today, and where Ben should (or absolutely should not) be allowed to display his Avatar children's toy at home. It’s a seriously funny and fascinating conversation. They also caught up with three of the film’s stars: iconic Kiwi actor Cliff Curtis, Avatar’s Jake Sully himself, Sam Worthington, and Jack Champion, who plays Spider. Cliff reveals why he hates watching his own movies, all three share the very different ways they landed their roles, and the group weighs in on whether Ben should show up to pick Sienna up from school in full Avatar costume. Plus: behind-the-scenes chaos including sharing a room with a snoring dad, red carpet Dad jokes, school leave approval drama, and a pair of broken shoes.
