Since its premiere 13 years ago, Avatar It has become one of the most successful movie sagas of all time. His two films are among the three highest-grossing films in the entire history of cinema and his next films aim to follow the same path as their predecessors.

However, all these sagas have a beginning, and the Avatar one is quite interesting, since its development dates back to the beginning of the millennium. In addition to the story, the character designs also had their development. Several weeks ago we already saw the first Na’Vi, but this time we have had the opportunity to see its protagonist Jake Sully.

Via his Instagram, Cameron’s lead designer for the Avatar movies Joseph C. Pepe wanted to share the first design they came up with for Jake Sully. As you can see in the post above, its shape has hardly changed, but it did have an air much more hostile.
