Avatar: Aang, The Last Airbender is an upcoming American animated fantasy film directed by Lauren Montgomery. It serves as the continuation/direct sequel to the Nickelodeon animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender (2005–2008) and the first production of Avatar Studios. The film stars the voice of Eric Nam as Aang, and also features Dionne Quan, Jessica Matten, Román Zaragoza, Steven Yeun, Dave Bautista, Taika Waititi, Geraldine Viswanathan, Freida Pinto, and Ke Huy Quan; it follows the series' main cast in their young adult years.
The film was announced in February 2021, along with the formation of Avatar Studios, a new division of Nickelodeon dedicated to the creation of projects set in the universe of the Avatar: The Last Airbender franchise. By June 2022, Montgomery was attached as director. Principal cast members were announced in the following years, with the main voice roles from the series being mostly recast in respect to character ethnic and racial backgrounds. The animation was provided by Flying Bark Productions and Studio Mir, and combines 2D hand-drawn animated characters with 3D computer-animated environments.
Originally slated to be theatrically released, Avatar: Aang, The Last Airbender is scheduled to be released on the streaming service Paramount+ on October 9, 2026.
