All the Netflix Avatar: The Last Airbender season 2 news we’ve heard so far
Aang and his friends are on a quest to stop the Fire Nation in the first season of Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender. But there’s plenty more to the story than just the first season, which was released on Netflix on Thursday. In fact, if the animated original series is anything to go by, there should be at least two more seasons in Aang’s journey.
And Netflix has confirmed that suspicion. The streamer has made its plans for Avatar’s future official, so here’s everything we know about the live-action Netflix Avatar: The Last Airbender season 2.
On March 6, just a few weeks after the show’s debut, Netflix announced that Avatar: The Last Airbender is moving forward with not just one, but two more seasons. This means that the show should be able to complete the entire run of the original series, which also ran three seasons.
Albert Kim told Entertainment Weekly that the live-action version altered the story slightly in order to allow some space between seasons 1 and 2, since the young actors will age quickly and noticeably in between filming. With planning like that, it’s clear that Kim at least has already thinking about the rest of the show from day one.
With Netflix’s renewal coming so quickly, it’s possible that the cast and crew hop right back to work and get the show’s next season done quickly. While there’s still only a slim possibility that the show could come back right away, with a new season debuting in 2025, it’s much more likely that we’d be waiting until 2026 to see Aang and the gang’s story continue. The good news is that it won’t take nearly as long as it did for the first season to go from announcement to debut, especially considering that the cast could quickly age out of their roles — just like the kids from Stranger Things.
