After the launch of Nickelodeon's Avatar Studios was announced earlier this year, we now have our first news of the output we can expect to see from the studio – an animated movie led by none other than original series creators Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, which is due to start production later this year.
"We are in the early stages of developing and exploring what we are calling an entire Avatar Airbender universe," Nickelodeon president Brian Robbins told Deadline. "Mike and Bryan are hard at work, and I think that universe will encompass definitely a theatrical film, animation, certainly multiple TV series and probably multiple films. I think we will be ready very soon to tell the world what is coming first but we are not there yet because we're in early stages of creative development."
