The first images of Avatar: The Legend of Aang are finally out, the second live action dedicated to the Nickelodeon animated series
It is a period of great turmoil for the platform Netflixthat after the event Tum, which took place on 17 June, caused a lot of talk due to the big news on the way. Many awaited series, such as the new seasons of The Witcher e Bridgertonand great debuts, such as that of One Piece. Among these, another title also popped up, of which traces had been lost for some time; it is about Avatar: The Legend of Aang. Finally we can show you the first images of the characters and a very short teaserin which the symbols of the four powers that dominate the universe of the TV series can be seen for the first time: water, air, earth and fire.
Attempt number 2 | Avatar: The Legend of Aang, here are the first photos of the live-action Netflix
The new Netflix show is taken from Avatar: The Legend of Aang, an American animated series, created by Michael Dante DiMartino e Bryan Konietzkobroadcast in Italy, on Nickelodeon, from 2005 to 2010. The cartoon achieved enormous success with both audiences and critics. The episodes, full of curious characters and numerous twists, also came to receive a Emmy Awardwinning the prize Best cartoon of the yearas well as numerous other awards.
It would seem that transforming the successful cartoon into a live action is not an easy task. An attempt had already been made in 2012, when the film The Last Airbender was released in theaters, creating quite a few discontent among fans of the mother series. The result? The following chapters, planned for the total transposition of the work, were never realised. Let’s hope that this new attempt achieves better results, even if not everything has gone according to the original plans. An example? The abandonment of the creators of the show who, while supporting the possibility that the new project could appeal to the public, said they were against some choices, far from their vision.
Plot, cast and release date
The series is set in a fantasy land, divided into four nations, whose inhabitants are able to control the four elements. However, the Fire Nation is at war with all the others for control of the entire world. Alone Aang, young airbender, could stop them. The boy is in fact able to control not only the element of him, but also all the others. Aang, with his two waterbending brothers by his side, Katara e Sokkawill have to deal with Zukothe exiled prince of the Fire Nation, ready to hunt him down to regain his position.
The first images depicting the main characters have just been available to the public. We can therefore see what Aang, Sokka, Katara and Zuko will look like, respectively played by Gordon Cormier, Ian Ousley, Kiawentiio Tarbell e Dallas Liu. Also in the cast Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, Daniel Dae Kim, Ken Leun, Maria Zhang, Elizabeth Yu, Lim Kay Siu e Amber Middle Dogs. The series is created by Albert Kim.
For now we still don’t have a precise date scheduled for the release of the series, we only know that Avatar: The Legend of Aang will be streaming in 2024. Let’s deceive the wait by taking a look at the first images published and the very short one teasershown at the Tudum event, which depicts the symbols of the four elements, the basis of this fantastic adventure.
