According to the plot:
“Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked. Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, can stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed, and my brother Sokka and I discovered the new Avatar: an airbender named Aang. Although his airbending skills are impressive, he still has much to learn before he’s ready to save anyone. However, I have faith that Aang can save the world.”

Back in 2021, Kim wrote a statement explaining why he was excited about adapting the iconic animated show. “A live-action version can not only faithfully translate what had been done in animation — it can bring a rich new visual dimension to a fantastic world,” Kim wrote. “We’ll be able to see bending in a real and visceral way we’ve never seen before.”
‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ will premiere on Netflix in 2024, and it will feature a total of eight episodes, each lasting one hour.
