Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender Redeems 1 Unforgivable Mistake of M. Night Shyamalan Live-Action Movie
Avatar: The Last Airbender is currently streaming on Netflix. Despite getting a mixed reaction from the audience, the live-action adaptation has been renewed for a second and third season. The 2010 released Avatar: The Last Airbender was directed by M.Night Shyamalan. The movie failed to make an impact both critically and commercially.
However, Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender fixes one of the biggest mistakes of M. Night Shyamalan’s s 2010 adaptation.
Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender Compensates For M. Night Shyamalan’s Live Action Project
Irrespective of getting a lukewarm reception from the audience, Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender stands tall in the category of music in comparison to M. Night Shyamalan’s adaptation. According to Screenrant, M. Night Shyamalan’s 2010 movie featured a well-written score by James Newton Howard but failed to pay tribute to Jeremy Zuckerman’s musical composition.
From the iconic theme of Avatar to the spell-binding tones of the Fire Nation, award-winning Japanese-American composer Takeshi Furukawa has faithfully included Zuckerman’s work in Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Over the years, Jeremy Zuckerman’s musical themes have been synonymous with the four nations of Avatar: The Last Airbender. With respect to other aspects of filmmaking, musical scores are an extremely important part as they hold the power to transport the audience to the world of imagination. Time and again, talented composers like Hans Zimmer, Michael Giacchino, and John Williams have proven this with their work.

“We’ve never met, but we actually had a nice little Instagram exchange because he saw an interview answer that I gave regarding him. He saw a clip and said thank you, so I responded and said it was all true. I have a lot of respect for him, not just as Luke Skywalker, of course, but he’s one of our greatest voice actors.”
Daniel Dae Kim is excited to play the character of Lord Ozai in the live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender. While talking about the character of Lord Ozai, he said-
“A descent into madness sounds like juicy territory for an actor, and it’s not something I’ve explored before on screen. Should we be lucky enough to get a season 2, I look forward to those conversations. Nothing is inevitable in this business and in this industry climate, but there seems to be a lot of excitement about it.”
