Avatar: The Last Airbender: Ian Ousley, Dallas Liu, Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio Interview

Ойын-сауық

When it comes to bringing a show like Avatar: The Last Airbender to life, there is nothing more important than making sure the casting is perfect. With such a large cast of young characters, the actors portraying these characters are under a lot of pressure to portray beloved characters while also putting their own spin on that role. The Netflix live-action series is based on the animated series of the same name, and it is set in a mythological world where some people are born with the power to manipulate a natural element like fire, water, air, and earth, which is called "bending." After the Fire Nation attacks the Air Nomads, the world is plunged into war. The only person who can save them? The Avatar, a person who can bend all four elements. But, at the worst time, the Avatar goes missing and is gone for 100 years before he finally is discovered frozen in a sphere of ice.
We spoke with actors Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio, Dallas Liu, and Ian Ousley about the task of taking on the main characters of the series. Cormier plays Aang, the titular Avatar who is also an airbender. Kiawentiio plays Katara, a waterbender. Ousley plays Sokka, Katara’s older brother who is also a warrior. And Liu plays Zuko, a firebender and exiled prince of the Fire Nation. We discussed the actors’ familiarity with the original series as well as what it was like to film some of the action sequences. We also talked about what each actor felt was a weakness and strength for their characters. Finally, the actors discussed going to boot camp to prep for the series and the physical training that went into the series.

    There's barely any comments woah, but i just wanted to say that i love love love this cast as a group. It's very clearly shown how much they all love and value both their characters and the story as a whole. It's very wholesome to see all that passion that goes into their craft and the appreciation of everyone involved in production and the original series, I hope to see many more of them upcoming

    I love these guys but "I think sokka can emotionally support the group" and "Katara losing her mom was a blow to her confidence" were just ????

    Are you guys not allowed to edit your videos or what’s going on? 😂 Ian and Dallas set up many jokes for you that could’ve been made funnier in editing.
