Strike Back below!

UPDATE - James Cameron wrote into Ain't It Cool saying, "Aside from two legs, two arms and a tail," the below artwork "doesn't have any features in common with our final designs." So there.

James Cameron's monumental sci-fi epic AVATAR is coming next year... no, wait! Not until May 2009? Gah! So I guess this really is an early glimpse of the flick's alien species (assuming it's actual concept art, as it was presented), which means we have a long time to wait for verification.

The movie follows a war veteran dispatched to a distant world, where he and others clash with indigenous humanoid lifeforms, some of whom are apparently sexy blue bioluminescent babes with tails. Nice planet. The FX-loaded 3-D film stars Sam Worthington, Sigourney Weaver, Matt Gerald, Giovanni Ribisi, Joel David Moore, Wes Studi, Stephen Lang, CCH Pounder, Michelle Rodriguez and the stunning Zoe Saldana, possibly playing this lithe extraterrestrial lady.

NOTE: The image was submitted to us without a source, but we're told the online point of origin is RIGHT HERE.

Extra Tidbit: Hmmm, she seems vaguely familiar...

Hmmm... looks like a female version of Nightcrawler from X-Men. But I have yet to see it in live-action before I can make judgement.

This pic follows the decription in the scriptment pretty much completely. I wonder if it is actual concept art or just some really good fanart which came too close to the real thing for Fox's liking?

Its nothing new but still good. I'm glad its humanoid, though, and not some four-legged creature thing, which I was expecting. I could be sympathetic for this kind of creature. I can't wait for a fully-realized hi-res pic though.

Looks interesting. Nothing revolutionary, but good.
Is Michael Biehn still supposed to be in this? *crosses fingers*

Surprised no one beat me to it...

First seeing the image, I thought:

"Oh, another crappy SPECIES sequel..."

I see some Grendel's mother Angelina Jolie and Abe Sapien in Hellboy mixed in with Mystic.
