We are DELIGHTED to share some new first-look images from Netflix’s upcoming live-action “Avatar: The Last Airbender” series. These photos center on the Fire Nation, and showcase characters like Prince Zuko, Princess Azula, Uncle Iroh, and Fire Lord Ozai.
Daniel Dae Kim plays Fire Lord Ozai, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee is General Iroh, Ken Leung is Commander Zhao, and Elizabeth Yu is Princess Azula, and Dallas Liu is Prince Zuko.
Water. Earth. Fire. Air. The four nations once lived in harmony, with the Avatar, master of all four elements, keeping peace between them. But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked and wiped out the Air Nomads, the first step taken by the firebenders towards conquering the world. With the current incarnation of the Avatar yet to emerge, the world has lost hope.
But like a light in the darkness, hope springs forth when Aang (Gordon Cormier), a young Air Nomad — and the last of his kind — reawakens to take his rightful place as the next Avatar. Alongside his newfound friends Sokka (Ian Ousley) and Katara (Kiawentiio), siblings and members of the Southern Water Tribe, Aang embarks on a fantastical, action-packed quest to save the world and fight back against the fearsome onslaught of Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim). But with a driven Crown Prince Zuko (Dallas Liu) determined to capture them, it won’t be an easy task. They’ll need the help of the many allies and colorful characters they meet along the way.
We’re hoping this means a trailer and additional photos aren’t that far away. The series is included in a tease for GeekedWeek, which returns next month. “Avatar: The Last Airbender” live-action series is expected to hit sometime in 2024. The animated original series, as well as sequel “The Legend of Korra,” are both available to stream on Netflix now.
