Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender Will “Condense” Content in Season 2

Avatar: The Last Airbender is currently in the works on Seasons 2 and 3 of its live-action series with Netflix, and one of the producers behind it all is teasing how the adaptation will be needing to “condense” some of the story from the original for its take on Season 2! As fans saw with the first season of Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender, the new live-action series took many of the moments seen in the animated original but blended them with some of the story elements from later seasons into a new kind of timeline for the story. 

On top of this, there were other stories that needed to be streamlined to fit within the new eight hour story for Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender. It seems that will be the process moving forward as speaking with The Direct, Avatar: The Last Airbender producer Jabbar Raisani noted how like seen in the first season, Season 2 will “condense” many of the stories from Season 2 of the original animated series in order to fit their new live-action format. Though at the time of this publication, the number of potential episodes have yet to be revealed. 

Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 Story Tease

“I think it’s a lot like season 1,” Raisani stated. “There’s a lot of content in the animated series. And we will be looking at all that content. But we don’t have the number of episodes that we have in the animated series. So, certainly, there will be some condensing that has to take place.” So much like the first season, things from the original Avatar: The Last Airbender will likely be trimmed out for this new live-action take on it. But as seen with that first season also, the key events were all in the live-action version and even had time for some elements from Season 2 mixed in early. 

Unfortunately, it has yet to be announced when fans can expect to see Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 (or 3) will be hitting Netflix. A production start date has yet to be set as of the time of this publication, and there are some key characters from Season 2 that fans are excited to see announced joined the cast. But you can check out the first season with Netflix to catch up and refresh while we wait for more episodes.
