Netflix is now gearing up for the upcoming release of its new live-action adaptation series, Avatar: The Last Airbender. In about two weeks, the story of Aang is about to hit the small screen, and the streamer is now showing its fresh take on the beloved series. After giving a good look at the Avatar, the service has released a new teaser to introduce the Fire Nation.
You can see the preview below:
The new Avatar: The Last Airbender teaser shows Zuko writing about the history of the Fire Nation. As a series of intense fights begin, he narrates his realm has been at war for a century, started by his great-grandfather, Fire Lord Sozin, and continued by his father, Fire Lord Ozai. As a prince, Zuko knows that it’s his duty to ensure their land will win.
Zuko continues that his Uncle Iroh claims that some believe it’s their nature to “expand and consume” just like fire as his sister, Azula, takes the scene, followed by Commander Zhao. With the war that the Fire Nation has started, the firebending master is convinced that they have to become victorious. So, to do that, he needs to find the Avatar and give him to his father. “It’s my destiny,” he says.

What is Avatar: The Last Airbender about?
Avatar: The Last Airbender follows the story of Aang, the last and living Avatar and Airbender. He has been frozen in a block of ice and finally gets freed to face the Fire Nation, who threatens to conquer the world. But before he can do that, he has to master all four elements, Air, Water, Earth, and Fire, to come face to face with Fire Lord Ozai. Amid the fear of this big responsibility, he gets the help of his friends, Sokka and Katara.
You can read the synopsis below:
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. 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.
