While detailing their upcoming slate of projects at CinemaCon 2023 on Thursday, Paramount confirmed the release date for the feature-length Avatar: The Last Airbender movie. The animated film, which will focus specifically on Avatar Aang and his friends, is set to release on October 10, 2025. As previously announced, it is a joint production between Nickelodeon Animation, Paramount Animation, and Avatar Studios.
With the film quite a way out, it means fans will have to wait a little while longer before seeing Team Avatar together again. The group, which includes the young Avatar himself as well as siblings Katara and Sokka, blind earth bender Toph, and the enemy-turned-ally fire bender Zuko, became beloved over the course of their journey together in the original series which aired from 2005 to 2008.
