Avatar: The Last Airbender is all set to premiere with all its episodes on February 22, 2024, at 3 am ET. Just two days before the season premiere, Netflix dropped the live-action adaptation series's final trailer. Notably, the trailer showcases the protagonist, Aang, grappling with the daunting responsibility of mastering the Avatar State.
Amidst this tension, Aang is acutely aware of the heavy expectations placed upon him. Moreover, he is voicing his anxiety about saving the world while feeling unprepared and uncertain of his abilities. As we see him saying, "Everyone is counting on me."
"This is just the beginning," Avatar: The Last Airbender trailer showcases Aang's internal conflict
Aang's internal conflict is further intensified by a warning about the dire consequences of inaction, consequently suggesting that failure to attempt is a risk in itself. Furthermore, the trailer shifts to moments of action and confrontation. This includes a direct challenge to the Firebenders.
This is coupled with Aang's acknowledgment of the uncertainty of his journey, yet he remains cognizant that these challenges mark only the beginning of a much larger and significant adventure. This blend of personal doubt, external pressure, and the onset of action encapsulates the complex journey Aang must undertake.
As Aang says:
"I don't know where this will lead. But the one thing I do know is, this is just the beginning."
What is Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender about?
The show Avatar: The Last Airbender revolves around a world divided into four nations: Water, Earth, Fire, and Air. These nations once lived in harmony, overseen by the Avatar, a being capable of mastering all four elements. However, peace breaks when the Fire Nation launches an aggressive attack. This started with the destruction of the Air Nomads.
Notably, the destruction marks their first step towards world domination. In addition, the Avatar, who maintains the world's balance, is missing, which leads to a loss of hope among the people.
The official synopsis of the show reads as follows:
“Water. Earth. Fire. Air. The four nations once lived in harmony, with the Avatar, master of all four elements, keeping peace between them. But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked and wiped out the Air Nomads, the first step taken by the firebenders towards conquering the world. With the current incarnation of the Avatar yet to emerge, the world has lost hope..."
It further states:
"But like a light in the darkness, hope springs forth when Aang, a young Air Nomad — and the last of his kind — reawakens to take his rightful place as the next Avatar. Alongside his newfound friends Sokka and Katara, siblings and members of the Southern Water Tribe, Aang embarks on a fantastical, action-packed quest to save the world and fight back against the fearsome onslaught of Fire Lord Ozai.
But with a driven Crown Prince Zuko determined to capture them, it won’t be an easy task. They’ll need the help of the many allies and colorful characters they meet along the way."
Avatar: The Last Airbender will be available to stream on Netflix starting February 22, 2024.
