A new movie based on Avatar: The Last Airbender is coming soon, taking place after the original series. Titled The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender, the film features the original creators and follows Aang and his friends as adults. After some production delays, it’s currently scheduled for release later this October.
Fans have been waiting for updates on the live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender, originally planned for theaters but now coming to Paramount+ this fall. Now, co-director Steve Ahn has announced on social media that he has finished his work on the film, marking a significant step forward in production.
When Does the Avatar: The Last Airbender Movie Come Out?
The live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender is coming to Paramount+ in October, though a specific date hasn’t been announced yet. Originally planned for a theatrical release on October 6th, the show faced several delays. Throughout the process, fans have only seen small glimpses of the series, with no substantial preview available. However, this recent news suggests we may get a better look at it soon.
The completion of a new production phase for The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender suggests the movie is still on track for its planned October 2026 release. If so, we can expect to see official trailers and other promotional content soon, giving us a first look at the returning characters, new cast members, and more. However, many details about the film remain unknown.
What to Know for The Legend of Aang: The Last Airbender
So far, the creators of the original Avatar: The Last Airbender series, Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, are involved in the new movie. They’re working through Avatar Studios—the same team developing the Avatar: Seven Havens sequel series—along with Paramount and Nickelodeon Movies. The movie will be available to stream exclusively on Paramount+, and it looks like future Avatar Studios projects will follow this streaming-only approach.
The upcoming live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender will have a new cast voicing the now-adult versions of the beloved characters. Eric Nam will voice Aang, and Steven Yeun will voice Zuko. The cast also includes Dave Bautista, Jessica Matten, Dionne Quan, Román Zaragoza, Taika Waititi, Geraldine Viswanathan, Dee Bradley Baker, Peta Sergeant, Freida Pinto, and Ke Huy Quan, though their specific roles haven’t been announced yet.
