Her commitment to the world of Pandora and being Na'vi is so embedded within her now that it is truly inspiring to be around. But the second thing it's really given me is not just the freedom of choice in terms of creative work and characters, but actually, it's given me the opportunity as a mother not to work. "Ronal is a formidable female character," Winslet told the magazine. "And when he described Ronal to me and said that she was the female, sort of goddess warrior leader of the water tribe, I just thought, I mean, to me, that's proper sort of music to my ears. So, the idea of playing someone like that who was a leader in that way, the water element was very important to me. And you know, Jim is an incredible writer of strong female roles and he was one of the first to be really doing that," Winslet explained.

The actor embraces aging and thinks other women should, too.

And I do care about being real and telling stories that are truthful and come from a place of integrity,” she told Woman’s Hour. Winslet said she believes in the “everything in moderation” theory, and tries to eat well and keep up with a healthy lifestyle. “There are a lot of myths, I think, around perfection and actresses looking perfect all the time and, and how real that is or that isn't. “Women on the red carpet have been sat in hair and makeup for four hours to look like that and probably had facials every day during the week in the run up to the event. We have opportunity to speak and speak our mind and not be afraid of what people think of us. But, in her humble opinion, getting older is a gift and only makes you “more powerful” as a woman.

Kate Winslet Set to Play Famed Vogue Model and Wartime ... (HistoryNet)

The film itself focuses on the decade and the war that irrevocably altered the adventurous life of Miller, who was beloved by her peers and GIs alike.

“To me, she was a life force to be reckoned with, so much more than an object of attention from famous men with whom she is associated,” Winslet said of her character. Miller was the first and only wartime photographer to record the first Allied use of napalm at St. Malo, France, and acted a witness to the horrors of the Holocaust. There, in part as a reaction to her own well-hidden trauma, she used her Rolleiflex camera to give a voice to the voiceless. The film’s log line describes Miller as “a middle-aged woman [who] refused to be remembered as a model and male artists’ muse. Others on the cast include Andy Samberg (“Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping” “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”) will play the role of Life Magazine photographer David E.

James Cameron: Kate Winslet Held Her Breath for 7 Minutes and 14 ... (MovieMaker Magazine)

James Cameron says that Kate Winslet held her breath for seven minutes and 14 seconds while training for Avatar: The Way of Water.

“I have the video of me surfacing saying, ‘Am I dead, have I died?’ And then going, ‘What was [my time]?'” Winlset said. You come in, if the gig is you’re going to be a Platoon, you’re going to be with Oliver Stone in the jungle, you’re going to learn how to field-strip your weapon, all that sort of thing. We’ll just assemble a team of world-class freediving cameramen.’” So Zuccarini came up with a solution: have the camera men hold their breath, too, just like the actors. Now, what that translates to in practical terms is about 2½ to three minutes of swimming and acting. For context, Tom Cruise [held his breath for six minutes](https://www.gq.com/story/human-tom-cruise-can-hold-his-breath-forever) while filming an underwater scene in Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation.

So yeah, that's probably the main difference, quite honestly is that, hopefully just, as storytellers, we've become a little more evolved and interesting, hopefully. Jim's become a parent again, since then," Winslet revealed. For the unversed, Kate starred in James' blockbuster Titanic opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in 1997, which catapulted her to superstardom. When quizzed what's the one difference she finds in the esteemed filmmaker, from Titanic to Avatar: The Way of Water, the Oscar winner confessed that they both have gone through their journey of changes.

'It's got to be an experience, first and foremost': James Cameron ... (The Guardian)

The director and actors discuss his typically gruelling film-making process, including learning to free dive, the tech v nature message of the new films ...

The Avatar films do have a conscience, but I don’t let that get in the way of the big adventure. “I guess what I’m struggling to do is to have the best of both worlds, right? [Terminator](https://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/jun/25/the-terminator-review-return-of-the-classic-80s-action-behemoth) to the venal extraction industry in [The Abyss](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096754/) to the hubristic catastrophe of Titanic. In The Way of Water, which is set a decade on from the first Avatar, Jake and Neytiri have four children. And obviously, the shoot was incredibly long and there was an enormous amount of pressure on everybody.” But the infamous Cameron temper seems to have gone. There were some similarities with making Titanic, she acknowledges, “in the sense that there were so many actors, and we really had to stick together because it was so hard for all of us. Even more of a surprise is the participation of Kate Winslet. In fact, she and Cameron remained friends, she says, explaining how, at an event in 2014, he said to her, “at some point, we have to get you big and blue”. [Avatar](https://www.theguardian.com/film/avatar), and much has changed in the interim. Alongside the militaristic hardware, a myth has formed of Cameron as a fearsome, tough-talking army general of a director, subduing and marshalling his crew on set to the extent they once made T-shirts that read: “You can’t scare me, I work for James Cameron.” Each one seems to be the most expensive gamble in history, and is predicted to be a disaster, but ends up breaking box-office records. Meanwhile, for the duration of the flight, “Jim is sitting up reading a book that was called something like Is God Dead?
