Aang is told he needs to master the Avatar State but admits he has no idea how he can be expected to save the world if he doesn’t know what he’s doing in the latest trailer for Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender. The minute-and-a-half final trailer was released just days ahead of the series’ premiere on Thursday, February 22, 2024.
The eight-episode first season stars Gordon Cormier as Aang, Kiawentiio as Katara, Ian Ousley as Sooka, Dallas Liu as Crown Prince Zuko, Ken Leung as Commander Zhao, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee as Uncle Iroh, and Daniel Dae Kim as Fire Lord Ozai.
“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, a young Air Nomad — and the last of his kind — reawakens to take his rightful place as the next Avatar,” reads Netflix’s synopsis. “Alongside his newfound friends Sokka and Katara, 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.
But with a driven Crown Prince Zuko 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.”
The live-action series is inspired by Nickelodeon’s animated series and brought to life by writer, executive producer, and showrunner Albert Kim. Additional season one writers include Michael Dante DiMartino, Bryan Konietzko, Emily Kim, Hunter Ries, Gabriel Llanas, Keely MacDonald, Audrey Wong Kennedy, Christine Boylan, and Joshua Hale Fialkov.
