Aang director confirms next Avatar movie has wrapped amid streaming shift

Despite being pulled from theatrical release and destined to premiere on streaming, the upcoming animated sequel Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender has wrapped production. Director Lauren Montgomery announced on Instagram, writing, "Aang movie is officially wrapped.

We screened the final film for the crew and celebrated the end of a 4 year journey. Now it waits in limbo until its release in October. I’ve never worked on an Avatar project that was easy and this was no different. But it was worth it. I’m so proud of everyone who was a part of this and the amazing thing we built together." Montgomery pushed back against the idea that the streaming move reflected the project's quality, saying, "The movie is amazing," added Montgomery, "The recent decision to move us from theatrical to streaming might give the impression that the quality wasn’t sufficient, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth.

This movie deserves to be seen on a big screen!!!
