Paramount+ has premiered a new trailer and unveiled some unexpected release plans for its all-new series “Avatar: Seven Havens”.
The series, set within Nickelodeon’s “Avatar: The Last Airbender” universe, premieres on October 9th, is getting a concentrated release with plans to debut episodes in blocks – Eps 1-3 on October 9th, Eps 4-6 on October 16th, Eps 7-9 on October 23rd and Eps 10-13 on October 30th.
The project hails from creators Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. Set 225 years after the events of “The Legend of Korra,” in a world shattered by a devastating cataclysm, a young Earthbender discovers she’s the new Avatar after Korra.
In this dangerous era, that title marks her as humanity’s destroyer, not its saviour. Hunted by both human and spirit enemies, she and her long-lost twin must uncover their mysterious origins.
Ultimately, she must save the Seven Havens before civilisation’s last strongholds collapse.
The principal voice cast includes Saheli Khan as Avatar Pavi, alongside Aishu Devan, Akshay Khanna, Major Curda, Sakina Jaffrey, Darren Barnet, Dianne Doan, and Dee Bradley Baker.
Jeremy Zuckerman also returns to handle the music for the series, which already has a two-season and 26-episode pick-up.
The franchise is coming off a rough Summer in which the second season of the live-action series was met with poor reviews, while the “Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender” film was leaked early.
