Avatar: The Last Airbender live-action series drops new trailer before Comic-Con
The first official trailer for Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender, a sequel to the beloved Nickelodeon animated series, has been revealed and will debut on 24 July at San Diego Comic-Con. The release matters because the project has had a difficult journey to the screen: originally scheduled for 2025, it was delayed, had its theatrical release scrapped, and then suffered leaked footage, so this marks the first sanctioned look at Team Avatar's return.
The story picks up after Aang and his allies ended the Fire Nation's war, with Aang discovering he may not be the last Airbender after all. The trailer introduces Tagah (Dave Bautista), an Airbender who initially allies with Aang (Eric Nam) to find an ancient power that could save the Air Nomads, though hints suggest the alliance sours. Team Avatar also faces an archer seeking bending powers. Co-creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko appear to borrow heavily from their sequel series The Legend of Korra. The film premieres on Paramount Plus on 25 July.
