While it is yet to be seen how Netflix's live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender will perform, the show has already fixed the movie's biggest mistake.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Netflix's live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender has already fixed the biggest mistake made by M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender movie. Since Netflix's live-action take on Avatar: The Last Airbender is scheduled to release in 2024, the streaming giant is gradually removing the tapestry surrounding its potential storylines, character beats, and casting developments to keep audiences well invested.
As several details in the original animated series suggest, the Air Nomads are primarily based on Tibetan Buddhist culture. Instead of wrapping them in stereotypes, the animated series does an incredible job at correctly representing everything from their practices to their attires. In contrast, by casting a white actor named Noah Ringer as Aang, The Last Airbender instantly diminished the cultural undertones and historical relevance that the animated series brought to the table.
Even for the role of the primary antagonist, Fire Lord Ozai, the series cleverly cast Daniel Dae Kim, who not only voiced General Fong in Avatar: The Last Airbender season 2, episode 1 but also took on the role of Hiroshi Sato in The Legend of Kora. Sokka's casting has garnered some controversy because the actor playing him, Ian Ousley, has been accused of lying about his Cherokee heritage to land a part in the film.
