Avatar Studios’ first animated movie will feature very familiar faces

The primary animated film from Avatar Studios, the workforce Nickelodeon set up to work on movies and shows within the Final Airbender universe, will characteristic Avatar Aang and his pals, in accordance with an announcement made throughout San Diego Comedian-Con (via Gizmodo). Whereas there’s no phrase on casting or a narrative synopsis but, some followers have expressed pleasure over the potential for attending to see Team Avatar — made up of Aang, Katara, Sokka, Toph, Zuko, Suki, and, in fact, Appa — in one thing new.

According to Polygon, the present will deal with Staff Avatar as younger adults, giving us a take a look at among the occasions that occur between The Final Airbender and The Legend of Korra. There are, in fact, a fair share of people that had been hoping to see one thing focused on new characters, like those from the novels. (Given the tease within the announcement video, that’s comprehensible.)

In case you’re in that camp, don’t hand over hope simply but. That is simply the primary of three animated movies that the studio is engaged on, so there’s probably loads of room for different characters to get an on-screen debut.

Outdoors of Avatar Studios, Netflix is working on a live-action adaptation of the unique present that’s due out in some unspecified time in the future, although I can’t say I’m that excited for that one given a) the historical past of Netflix’s live-action adaptations, b) the historical past of live-action Avatar adaptations and c) the truth that the present’s unique creators left that project.
