Back in 2005, Avatar: The Last Airbender made its way to Nickelodeon as an animated series. Spanning over 5 seasons, the family show took the world by storm as it became hugely popular. However, in 2008, after an incredible run of nearly three years, the hit TV show came to an end. Since then, the fans had been reminiscing about the show’s episodes and characters. Much to the fan’s surprise, Netflix previously announced a live-action series on the popular series. Months later, it seems like we finally have a glimpse of what the characters in the series would look like.

The live-action adaptation of The Last Airbender has always been a project to look out for.
