Avatar Studios was announced back in 2021 after original Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra creators Bryan Konietzko and Mike DiMartino left the Netflix live-action series to run their own animation studio. The only detail we have learned is that Avatar Studios will report directly to Paramount and not Nickelodeon like the previous two shows. They are hard at work finishing up the previously announced Avatar Aang feature film that is set to star Eric Nam (Transplant, Saturday Night Live Korea) as Aang; Jessica Matten (Dark Winds) as Katara; Román Zaragoza (Ghosts) will voice Sokka; and Dionne Quan (The Fairly OddParents, All Grown Up) as Toph, with Dave Bautista voicing some unknown villain character. The film is currently set to be released on January 20th, 2026.

The studio is also simultaneously working on other projects. They have two other feature films at some stage of development, and we are told they are not sequels to the Avatar Aang film but will be standalone movies (possibly about Avatar Kyoshi or Avatar Korra). They are also developing a sequel series to Avatar: The Last Airbender and The Legend of Korra, which will feature the next Avatar in the cycle, the Earthbending Avatar. This series is expected to debut exclusively on Paramount+.

Not much is known about this next Avatar series; however, we at Knight Edge Media can exclusively tell you that two episodes are finished as of July 2024 in the storyboard/animatics stage with voiceovers. We teased this series over the summer on Twitter and can verify that the next Earth Avatar will be female again, following Avatar Korra. She will first be seen as a homeless young girl alongside her animal guide, who looks like a large feline-type creature (the artist’s image above is for reference only and not associated with Avatar Studios or Paramount). She is also an amputee, missing her left leg. The series also takes place sometime in the future as the storyboards look like people ride on hoverboards, though it could simply be someone air surfing as the Airbenders should be pretty well established by this time.

Now, our source has given some additional context on the stage of the Avatar Universe by the time we meet this new Avatar. As we couldn’t verify these additional plot details, we labeled them as rumors for now until officially announced. Jumping right in, the four nations do not exist anymore. The series will establish that some unknown cataclysmic event will occur that Avatar Korra will be forced to stop. She will, in turn, be forced to reshape the entire world from the original four nations to seven new locations/countries or “havens.” (Which I am told could be the subtitle of the series). This would effectively make Avatar Korra the most powerful Avatar known in the lore due to her ability to break and remake the world on her own. I’m speculating, but I assume this event is what ultimately kills Avatar Korra, leading to the reincarnation of the Earth Avatar.

Once the new Earth Avatar is born, we learn she will actually be from a set of identical twin sisters. This has long been a fun fan theory on what would happen with twins. The recent novel The Reckoning of Roku played with this idea of establishing Roku had a twin who died sometime before he was announced as the Avatar. Nevertheless, these twins will be the focal point of the series. The White Lotus is expected to have taken one of the twins and raised her in wealth, as she is seen as the more powerful of the two. It’s unknown if they are separated at birth or as toddlers, but the second twin somehow ends up cast aside and forgotten. She grows up on the streets of one of the new “havens” with her animal guide. Eventually, the two twins are reunited and begin training together, as the non-Avatar twin is still very powerful and has actual training from The White Lotus. Again, this is speculation, but the series could eventually introduce both having a part of Raava in them; thus, technically, both are “the Avatar,” but that is unknown. They could also play with the Dark and Light Avatar stories again, but that seems like a retread of Legend of Korra season 2 and extremely underwhelming. Though I suspect they will keep it simple with one as the Avatar and one not the Avatar.
