AvatarTheWayofWater never tells us how old Jake Sully and Neytiri's many children are, but there are clues.
While Avatar: The Way of Water is pretty straightforward, the sequel does everything possible to avoid setting the story’s events into a rigid timeline. As a result, we never learn how old the many children of Jake Sully and Neytiri are. Fortunately, James Cameron left enough breadcrumbs behind for us to make an educated guess. So, now that The Way of Water is available in theaters, let’s break down the sequel’s teenage cast and try to figure out their age.
Who Are Jake and Neytiri’s Children? Avatar: The Way of Water happens approximately fifteen years after the events of the 2009 movie. At the end of Avatar, Jake helps the Na’vi to defeat the human colonizers, sending them back to Earth. Jake also permanently transfers his consciousness into his avatar, becoming one of Pandora’s people forever.
Rounding up the new young cast, there’s Spider , a human child left behind in Pandora. Spider was only a baby in Avatar, and since cryogeny is dangerous for children, he’s left behind on the moon. Spider grows among the Na’vi, learning their ways and language. He also develops a close relationship with Jake and Neytiri’s children, which turns him into a sort of cousin.
While The Way of Water doesn’t give fans a clear answer when it comes to the character's age, we can still deduce a few things. First, there’s Spider. Since he was already born when humans were driven out of Pandora, and The Way of Water takes place after a fifteen-year time jump, we can safely assume Spider is fifteen years old. Neteyam is the eldest child of Jake and Sully, and grew up with Spider. So, if Na’vi gestates for a similar period to humans, Neteyam is around fourteen years old.
