Netflix also revealed the following artwork, teasing the details of the upcoming second and third seasons. It looks like they will thematically follow the the original series, with Season 2 being Book 2: Earth, and Season 3 being Book 3: Fire. You can check out that artwork below:
Netflix also issued the following statement on the Season 2 and 3 renewals:
“Avatar State has officially taken over the world.
Fans across the globe have embraced Avatar: The Last Airbender, leading to a two-season renewal. The live-action reimagining of the beloved animated series follows Aang, the young Avatar, as he learns to master the four elements (Water, Earth, Fire, Air) to restore balance to a world threatened by the terrifying Fire Nation.
Since the show’s Netflix debut on February 22, Avatar: The Last Airbender has reigned as the top English TV show with 41.1M views in just the first 11 days. The series ranked No. 1 in 76 countries and in the top 10 in 92.
Leading up to the series premiere, we harnessed all four elements to heighten excitement with fans old and new.”

Netflix also took part in various promotional tie-ins for the series across YouTube and TikTok. There’s even a video of Avatar superfan and 23-time Grand Slam winner Serena Williams entering the Avatar state (see below)
When Can Fans Expect Season 2?
I’m just as excited as you are and can’t wait to see what changes they’ve made, as well as what storyline gets shown. While Netflix has not yet announced a release date as yet, we can speculate to some degree about how long it might take. It took two years to film the first season. Going by that time frame, we can roughly predict that Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 might arrive in late Winter or early Spring 2026. I can’t say the same logic works for season 3 but we can hope that we get both seasons quickly.
Don’t forget that Sozin’s Comet doesn’t have a timeline anymore, and the producers of the show want the characters to grow along with the series. It’s only logical as it’s live-action.

Synopsis (Season 1): Water. Earth. Fire. Air. The four nations once lived in harmony, with the Avatar, master of all four elements, keeping peace between them. But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked and wiped out the Air Nomads, the first step taken by the Firebenders toward conquering the world. With the current incarnation of the Avatar yet to emerge, the world has lost hope.
But like a light in the darkness, hope springs forth when Aang (Gordon Cormier), a young Air Nomad — and the last of his kind — reawakens to take his rightful place as the next Avatar. Alongside his newfound friends Sokka (Ian Ousley) and Katara (Kiawentiio), siblings and members of the Southern Water Tribe, Aang embarks on a fantastical, action-packed quest to save the world and fight back against the fearsome onslaught of Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim). But with a driven Crown Prince Zuko (Dallas Liu) determined to capture them, it won’t be an easy task. They’ll need the help of the many allies and colorful characters they meet along the way.
