Amidst its Valentine's week release, Netflix dropped the striking official trailer of Avatar: The Last Airbender on January 23, 2024. The live-action series is based on the animated program of the same name, which aired on Nickelodeon channel from 2005 to 2008, and it's worth the wait!

Fans' reactions on Daniel Dae Kim's performance

The internet exploded after the trailer dropped, showering the show with reactions from adoring fans. Netflix capitalised on the buzz with a special event, where Daniel Dae Kim himself dived headfirst into the online commentary. From flirty declarations to gushing fan art, the Korean-American actor was in a wave of emotions as he navigated the diverse range of audience response. For the unversed, Daniel Dae Kim played the role of Fire Lord Ozai, the father of Zuko and Azula.

The trailer shows Aang, a little kid, who is a bit scared and confused at first, tries really hard to learn how to control water and air like a super-powerful bender. We don't see him bend fire or earth yet, but we know he can connect with magical spirits, and that'll probably be in the show. The trailer also introduced Aang's fluffy pet, who sticks by his side through everything, and lots of exciting actions with mesmerising special effects and fights that make your heart race.
