Netflix renews the Avatar: The Last Airbender for Season 2 and 3

Despite some of the negative reviews of Netflix’s live action adaption of Avatar: The Last Airbender, the streaming giant just announced that they’re renewing the series for two more seasons.

The announcement was both made by the company’s social media account and also by Daniel Dae Kim in a recent video meeting with the rest of the cast.

Whether you like the series or not, it appears that enough people love the show for Netflix to renew it for two more seasons.

Here are some numbers about the show that the Netflix released with their announcement.

Since it premiered two weeks ago, Avatar: The Last Airbender has been the No. 1 English-language TV show, amassing 41.1 million views in just the first 11 days. Additionally, the show was No. 1 in 76 countries and in the Top 10 in 92.

Netflix’s live action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender was created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, which is based on animated series released by Nickelodeon. AVATAR: THE LAST AIRBENDER Season 1 is now available for streaming on Netflix.

Watch the New Trailer for Avatar The Last Airbender

Netflix’s new and upcoming series Avatar The Last Airbender will premiere on February 22 this year.

The new Avatar of the four elements will be played by half-French, half-Filipino Canadian actor Gordon Cormier (Lost in Space). Anne with an E actress Kiawentiio Tarbell will be playing Katara, while Ian Ousley plays her brother Sokka. Dallas Liu will be playing Aang’s archnemesis (for the first few seasons, at least), and Elizabeth Yu will act as the power-crazed firebender Azula.

The trailer for the series will differ from the M. Night Shyamalan movie released in 2010, with the main difference being the coverage of the events. The 2010 movie showed select scenes in the first season of the animated series. The highlights of the film were Episodes 19 and 20, The Siege of the North.

This time, however, fans of the much-beloved children’s show will see all important characters and events from Episode 1 until 20 of Book 1:Water.
