Since February 22, 2024, fantasy fans can plunge into an exciting adventure with the Netflix series Avatar: The Lord of the Elements. The live-action remake of the acclaimed Avatar animated series spectacularly brings the battles of the elemental tamers to life. But after 8 episodes, Aang’s journey is far from over.
Will there be a second season of Avatar? When might it start on Netflix? And what does the end of season 1 and the animated original reveal about what could happen next for Aang (Gordon Cormier) and Team Avatar? Here you can find all the important information:
When might Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 2 come to Netflix?
The disappointing news first: Avatar has not yet been renewed for season 2. As a rule, Netflix first assesses the development of audience numbers in the first few weeks after launch before making a judgment. This can take up to two months. In the case of the live-action adaptation One Piece, however, it only took two weeks until it was renewed.
Even if Avatar: The Lord of the Elements is renewed for another season soon, there is already a problem. The production of the series is extremely time-consuming. After filming began, it took 27 months for the first season to be released. So fans should be prepared for that Season 2 on Netflix in 2026 at the earliest could appear.
What’s next? Here’s how to prepare for the end of Netflix’s Avatar Season 2
The first season is of course just the beginning from Avatar Aang’s great fantasy adventure. But the finale already sets the course for the sequel, which will lead to the heart of the Earth Kingdom.

The avatar still has a lot to learn
In order to stop the Fire Nation and gain his full power as the Avatar, airbender Aang must first master three more elements – water, earth and fire. At the end of the first eight episodes, he prepares to finally learn waterbending from Katara (Kiawentiio) and then return to Omashu, to also be trained in earthbending.
However, Aang, Katara and Sokka (Ian Ousley) do not yet know that the Fire Nation, under the command of Princess Azula (Elizabeth Yu), has already taken over the city of Omashu. We also learn that the capital Ba Sing Se the last unconquered fortress is. The Fire Nation has already subjugated the rest of the Earth Kingdom.
However, we only find out the most important detail for the future of the story at the very end of the eighth episode. 100 years after Fire Lord Zosin wiped out the Air Nomads and began a war of the century, the new arrival of a powerful comet is announced. This celestial body gives firebenders a huge boost in power.
As soon as Zosin’s comment appears in the sky, Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim) can no longer be stopped. When exactly will that be? The Netflix series leaves this open with an unspecific “soon”. In the original cartoon it was only a few months.
