Avatar Live-Action Netflix Show Casts Teen Wolf & Sonic 2 Stars
Netflix’s upcoming Avatar: The Last Airbender series adds several new actors to its live-action cast. The previous adaptation of the original Avatar: The Last Airbender animated series, a movie helmed by M. Night Shyamalan in 2010, unfortunately left a bitter taste in fans’ mouths. This created some apprehension about the latest attempt to capture some of what made the animation so successful, which was only furthered when original creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko left the project back in 2020.
After their departure, Albert Kim took over as showrunner, promising a project that both old and new fans of the series are sure to love. Kim was a fan of the original cartoon, and after he guaranteed a diverse cast and crew behind the new live-action ATLA, fans regained some optimism for the project. Gordon Cormier plays Aang in the new series, supported in his search for bending masters by Kiawentiio and Ian Ousley as Katara and Sokka, respectively. Their journey is constantly being interrupted by Zuko (Dallas Liu), who hunts for the Avatar with the help of his Uncle Iroh (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee).
