Exciting news for fans of the Avatar universe: Nickelodeon and Avatar Studios have officially announced a new series titled "Avatar: Seven Havens" to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Avatar: The Last Airbender. The series is being brought to life by the original creators, Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, who are eager to expand the beloved world they first introduced decades ago.
"Avatar: Seven Havens" is set to be a 26-episode, 2D animated series that follows the journey of a young Earthbender who discovers she is the new Avatar after Korra. The series unfolds in a world that has been shattered by a cataclysmic event. In this new era, the title of Avatar marks her as a potential destroyer rather than a savior. As she faces threats from both human and spirit enemies, she, along with her long-lost twin, must unravel the mysteries of their origins and strive to save the Seven Havens—the last bastions of civilization.
DiMartino and Konietzko expressed their enthusiasm, stating, “When we created the original series, we never imagined we’d still be expanding the world decades later. This new incarnation of the Avatarverse is full of fantasy, mystery, and a whole new cast of amazing characters.” The series will be divided into two seasons, each consisting of 13 episodes, forming Book 1 and Book 2. They are co-creating the series with executive producers Ethan Spaulding and Sehaj Sethi. Details about the cast are yet to be announced.
This announcement marks the first mainline TV series from Avatar Studios, who are also working on a full-length animated movie centered around an adult Aang. The movie is slated for a theatrical release on January 30, 2026, and promises to take audiences on a new adventure.
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Avatar Studios has also planned a range of new books, comics, concerts, toys, and even a game on Roblox, ensuring fans have plenty to look forward to in the coming years.
