Aang's story will continue!
Big news for fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender – the Netflix live-action show has been renewed for two more seasons!
The Netflix series, based on the original Nickelodeon cartoon, stars an all-new cast, with Gordon Cormier taking on the role of Aang, the young airbender who comes to discover he's the Avatar – the one person capable of mastering all four elements.
The streaming giant has confirmed that the show will conclude with its third season. Episode counts and further details will be revealed at a later date.
Alongside the renewal news, Netflix has released a new poster confirming: "Aang's journey continues. Only on Netflix."
The season 1 ending certainly set up a second instalment, with Daniel Dae Kim's villainous Fire Lord Ozai revealing his true intentions of conquering the Earth Kingdom.

Meanwhile, Commander Zhao actor Ken Leung opened up about whether his character's story is over. Admitting he's "suspicious" of Zhao's demise in the finale episode, he added to RadioTimes.com: "In the original, we do know what happens to him – he ends up in the Fog of Lost Souls in the spirit world.
"As this is a re-imagining, I don't know how that part of it will be re-imagined, if it will be, so I'm in the same boat as you!"

Elsewhere, Ozai actor Kim said he'd love one particular scene with his on-screen brother, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, who plays Uncle Iroh.
He said: "I would really love to see a scene between us where we address the fact that I am the younger brother and actually talk about the succession and how it turned out the way it did."
Here's hoping they get their wishes!
