THE LIVE-ACTION “AVATAR – THE LAST AIRBENDER” HAS WRAPPED PRODUCTION
NETFLIX: After a seven month shoot in Vancouver, Avatar-The Last Airbender has wrapped principle photography. So I wonder how long we’ll have to wait to see a teaser for this new iteration of the beloved animated series. And I say ‘NEW’ because the creators of the animated series walked away from this live-action version over creative differences. So it is going to be different. But how different?
Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, the creators of Avatar: The Last Airbender, said in separate statements that they came to believe their creative vision for the show wasn’t being supported. So they left to work on animated Avatar-related projects…
So understandably, I’m a little nervous about what this new live-action series has to offer. I mean, most of us true Avatar fans are still upset about what the beyond-bad M. Night Shamalan film did to the brand…. But I’m reserving judgement until I see what Netflix is offering up.
