After enjoying great success with their One Piece live-action adaptation, Netflix is bringing another popular series from the animated world to the real one. The much-anticipated adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, which is based on an animated series of the same name originally ran for three seasons. Now, the Netflix live-action series is only a few weeks from being released and the fans might be wondering what the live-action series has in store for them. While the fans of the animated series might already what’s going to happen, this article is much more about the newcomers who are about to be introduced to the world that is divided into four nations.

Before we get into the nitty-gritty of Netflix’s live-action adaptation, first we should talk about a film that fans of the original series hated. Yes, we are talking about the 2010 film directed by M. Night Shyamalan, which strayed from the source material and made a mockery of the series that was loved by millions. While the Netflix series is said to be aiming to be as true to the source material as possible, it just seems like an impossible task with each season taking place in only a year and with quickly growing child actors who will be playing these characters. So, let’s see how Netflix does it but before that let’s find out what Netflix has in store for the Avatar: The Last Airbender fans in the live-action adaptation.
