Avatar: The Last Airbender is an upcoming American adventure fantasy streaming television series. It is a live-action adaptation of the animated television series of the same name (2005–2008). First announced in September 2018, Albert Kim is set to be the showrunner, with an ensemble cast including Gordon Cormier (Lost in Space, The Stand), Dallas Liu (PEN15, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), Kiawentiio (Anne with an E, Rutherford Falls), Ian Ousley (13 Reasons Why, Physical), Paul Sun-Hyung Lee (The Mandalorian, Ahsoka) and Daniel Dae Kim (Hawaii Five-0, Hellboy).
The series is set in a war-torn Asian and Arctic-inspired world where certain people can "bend" one of the four classical elements—water, earth, fire, or air. Aang, the "Avatar" and the last living Airbender, is the "bridge" between the mortal and spirit worlds, and the only one capable of bending all four of the elements. The Avatar maintains the balance of the world and nature to bring peace, and Aang is now faced with the responsibility of ending the ambitions of the militaristic Fire Nation to conquer the world. With his new companions Katara and Sokka, Aang sets out to master the four classical elements while pursued by the exiled Fire Nation crown prince Zuko, who seeks to regain his honor by capturing him.
The series is scheduled to premiere on February 22, 2024, on Netflix and will consist of eight episodes. Watch the official trailers below.
