Live Action Anime

As of yesterday, a new 30 second teaser for M. Night Shyamalan’s live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender emerged online following its spot on the Superbowl. Check it out below:

It contains only a few tantalising shots and a single line of voiceover, but it’s enough to make me more excited for The Last Airbender than for this year’s other comparable upcoming fantasy-actioners, Clash of the Titans and Prince of Persia. The choreography and the effects shots seem to suggest that Mr. Shyamalan has envisioned a vibrant and exciting fantasy world that does the scope of the source material justice. According to the trailer, we’ll find out for sure on July 2nd.
