Leaked Avatar Aang movie was "just one of a whole slate" and the next project will be announced "when the time's right"
If fans watch Avatar Aang, we could be getting more from The Last Airbender
Avatar: The Last Airbender co-creator Bryan Konietzko has revealed that more top-secret projects from the animated franchise are on the way – if the appetite is there from fans.
"The [Avatar] Aang movie was just one of a whole slate," Konietzko told Entertainment Weekly. "I'm working on another thing, which we'll announce when the time's right."
Right now, Avatar is in a precarious position. Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender suffered an unprecedented leak earlier this year, with the entirety of the movie being available to watch on social media for almost 24 hours. That followed the feature being pushed from a theatrical release to a Paramount Plus drop.
From there, Avatar Aang – which follows the adult Gaang as they encounter a surviving airbender – was shifted to a July 25 release, in line with an Avatar Hall H panel at this year's San Diego Comic-Con.
Konietzko added of his current feeling after a tumultuous period for the series, "I think if we had just been kicked to the curb and felt like no one cared about us anymore, it would be harder to deal with. But they are really excited not only for this but for [upcoming show] Seven Havens – and for the other projects that we’re working on."
Seven Havens, a sequel to The Legend of Korra, is an upcoming series that has – unfortunately – also been the target of leakers in recent months.
A live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender is currently airing, though its second season has seen a significant dip in viewership on Netflix compared to its first season.
