Last Airbender Sequel Show Legend of Korra Releases on Netflix Next Month

Avatar: The Last Airbender sequel TV show Avatar: The Legend of Korra will release Netflix next month. In the mid-2000s, Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko created Avatar: The Last Airbender, which premiered on Nickelodeon in 2005 and concluded at the end of season 3 in 2008. The world was then expanded with a sequel series, The Legend of Korra, which followed the next Avatar in the cycle, young waterbender Korra. It premiered in 2012 and ran for four seasons, concluding in 2014.

This year, the world of Avatar: The Last Airbender has seen a resurgence in popularity with the show’s recent release on streaming. Avatar: The Last Airbender released on Netflix May 15, and viewers around the world were able to watch or rewatch the beloved animated series. It was disappointing to see that The Legend of Korra wasn’t available on the streaming platform. However, that’s about to change.

Today, Netflix announced Avatar: The Legend of Korra will release Friday, August 14 in the U.S., with all four seasons available to stream. Check out the announcement below.
