Avatar Studios Anonymous 01/11/2025 (Sat) 15:06:41 No. 43087
https://archive.fo/27Dqy >Today, a Paramount merchandising video from September 2024 has been discovered online that features the possible slate of projects currently in development from Avatar Studios (it’s since been removed on Vimeo). It first mentions that the Netflix live-action series has been greenlit for seasons 2 and 3. Avatar Studios is a production company alongside Nickelodeon though not directly involved (via IMDB). Next, it shows Aang: The Last Airbender, the previously announced theatrical movie with the first revealed title card. Then, it confirms the long rumored Earth Avatar TV series will be released second. Followed by a second theatrical film, a brand-new Airbending TV series, and a final theatrical film. It will also end with a Firbending project under “new content.” The video also ends with the title Avatar Legends, which could be what the universe will be called to differentiate it from James Cameron’s Avatar universe. From the AAA game announcement in Oct, “This new Avatar Legends title reflects the companies’ shared desire to continue their long-term strategic partnership to bring Paramount IP to life.” So, let us break down what each project is or could be. >The first project to be released will be the Avatar Aang theatrical movie on January 30th, 2026, featuring a brand new cast of voice actors taking up the iconic roles. The cast includes Eric Nam (Transplant, Saturday Night Live Korea) as Aang; Jessica Matten (Dark Winds) as Katara; Román Zaragoza (Ghosts) as Sokka; and Dionne Quan (The Fairly OddParents, All Grown Up) as Toph. It will also introduce Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy) as a brand-new villain. We at Knight Edge Media found a copyright submission on the project that lists it under the working title Lost Realm and mentions actor Steven Yeun (Avatar Wan in Korra) is in the movie. We also heard years ago that Dante Basco is expected to return from the original cast as Firelord Zuko, but surprisingly, he has yet to be announced. Paramount has brought tidbits on the Aang movie to CinemaCon in Las Vegas the past two years. It’s possible we could hear more about it at the event in April. >The second project to be released will be the Earth Avatar TV series following the events of The Legend of Korra on Paramount+. This will be the next series in the cycle of shows and take place in a post-apocalyptic world. Over the last month, we at Knight Edge Media revealed several exclusive tidbits about this yet-to-be-announced animated series. It will follow two South Asian twin girls, Avatar Pavi and (possibly?) Avatar Nisha, as they go on an adventure to discover what happened to Avatar Korra. Why are they the first set of Avatar twins in history? Does one have Raava and the other Vaatu? Why has their world become a wasteland full of terrifying energy storms? Why are there seven havens cities and not the four nations? The series is confirmed to run for 26 episodes initially and is currently titled Avatar: Seven Havens, though that final title can also change. It was made under the working title Aurora. No official voice casting has been announced for the series yet. >The third and fifth projects are two more theatrically released feature films. At one time, the three films were going to take place in different eras and feature different Avatars. This slate has an image of Avatar Aang, which may indicate the three films are a true trilogy following a 3-movie arc with adult Aang. It’s also very possible the images are just marketing placeholders to conceal that the two subsequent films are as self-contained stories with different Avatars. It’s unknown at this point if anything changed, though it would be fascinating if the rumored Avatar Korra movie were a prequel movie to the Avatar Pavi TV Series. Explaining precisely what cataclysmic event with Korra reshaped the world from four nations into seven havens/regions. Avatar News mentioned in 2022 that an “Earth Avatar movie” was also in development. It’s possible the Earth Avatar and Korra movies may be one and the same. Fans have also long wanted an Avatar Kyoshi movie adapted from one of the novels set in the past before Aang. >The new and surprising bit of information is a previously unknown and untitled Airbending TV series set to release between the two final feature films. It would be assumed that the following show (or Avatar) would be the Firebending Avatar set in the distant future. Since that would follow the Avatar cycle and the release of the shows, but they seem to skip them completely. Many fans thought the Earth Avatar series would be a cyberpunk-type series (like Mike and Bryan’s original concept for Avatar: The Last Airbender), but it turned into a post-apocalyptic series. Maybe the Airbender series could feature a new future Avatar or feature Avatar Aang or Avatar Yangchen, though this is all speculation. Hopefully, it’s new content and not a retread of Aang again. >Lastly, the slate reveals an untitled Firebending project is in development but listed as “new content,” not a series. This could be anything from digital shorts to another novel. Though it is most likely the AAA video game Avatar: Ice Wars based on the released concept art of a new unknown Fire Avatar set 7,000 years in the past. However, this is all speculation and way off in their plan. With so many animated projects in development simultaneously, it makes sense why it has taken years to release anything. However, a positive thought is that there will be less down time between projects being released, even if it’s a longer wait up front.

How long are they going to pretend anyone gives a shit about Avatar outside of the original show? Korra was shit, the live action was shit, the games are shit, the books are shit, the comics are shit. Just give it a rest already.
