THR reports that Nickelodeon has launched Avatar Studios to create TV and movie projects based on The Last Airbender and Legend of Korra, with creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko as co-chief creative officers following their split with the live-action series planned at Netflix.
The beloved world of the animated Avatar: The Last Airbender series (not the much-maligned live-action movie) will be expanded upon beyond the Legend of Korra sequel series.
Content from the new Avatar Studios will debut on Paramount+, with the first project as an animated feature film scheduled to begin production later in 2021.
And we’re still not out of the big-ticket projects!
