In February 2005, kids who watched Nickelodeon were introduced to a new series called Avatar: The Last Airbender.

The animated fantasy series followed a world where people had the ability to bend the four elements and used them for good... and evil. After a group called the Fire Nation decided to wage war on the rest of the planet, the other divisions of people (the Water Tribe, Earth Kingdom and Air Temple) end up in a fight that spans 100 years. The only person that can save them? A young boy named Aang, who finds himself frozen in time.

Avatar: The Last Airbender ran for three seasons on television. What's more, the series later spawned a movie called The Last Airbender, which debuted in 2010 and was based on the show's first season.

Now, Netflix is taking a chance at re-creating the show kids loved, but on a grander scale. The streamer is bringing the cartoon to life with a re-imagined version of Avatar: The Last Airbender, with a cast as famous as the story being told. Intrigued to know more? Here's what you need to know about Avatar: The Last Airbender, including cast, news, release date and more.

Will Avatar: The Last Airbender be on Netflix?

More than 10 years after the animated version of Avatar: The Last Airbender aired on Nickelodeon, fans got quite the surprise when Netflix announced in 2018 that a remake was in the works.

Amid creative differences between the streamer and the series' original creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko (who were slated to be executive producers and showrunners), Michael and Bryan exited the project in the summer of 2020. Eventually, Albert Lin was named as writer, executive producer and showrunner, with Dan Lin, Lindsey Liberatore, Michael Goi and Roseanne Liang being announced as executive producers as well.
