Avatar: Seven Havens - October 9, 2026

Nickelodeon will probably air this show in many countries, including Türkiye. Netflix will definitely bring it digitally to many countries, including Türkiye.

The film, which was also leaked and will be released on Paramount Plus on July 25th, will probably be released by Nickelodeon. I don't know where it will be released digitally. Maybe Netflix will join after a while. Or they'll give both the new show and the film to whoever they work with globally.
 
Of course I'll be watching, but the premise reminds me of my pet peeve with post-apocalyptic futures -- that they're basically an excuse for writers to avoid speculating about future technology or progress by having society regress to a more primitive level. After Avatar being set in a world paralleling the late 19th century and Korra being in a world paralleling the 1920s, I was interested to see what the Avatar world would be like when it caught up to the modern age. (Would they have space travel? Does space even work the same way in a universe where comets are fire instead of ice and the Moon is a spirit?) Instead, we get a regression.

I was wondering if the twin thing meant they'd both be Avatars, but the description says otherwise. Unless the description is hiding a surprise.

The main plot of this show has been leaked before;


The Avatar Korra, who brought the world to this state, and the girls seen in the trailers are also Avatars.

Yeah, that's my one big disappointment with this, I was really hoping the next series would be if not modern day, or if they want to keep it closer to Korra maybe '60s or '70s.
 
I'm guessing those people in the yellow and red outfits are the present day version of the Air Acolytes, and they do appear to be Air Bending.

The blue triangle may represent the Airbender tattoos.
 
After skipping the first two Avatar series when they came out, and loving them after I finally watched them, definitely going to follow this from day 1.

Two Avatars this time? Are they gonna have one good one evil Avatar? One being Raava and the other Vaatu? Would explain why people are seeing the Avatar as being evil - one of them is!
 
That wouldn’t make sense to me, as Raava explicitly grants to ability to bend four elements and Vaatu could do the same.
Split bending abilities only make sense to me if Raava somehow split their essence between the two twins.

Basically reincarnation/Raava merging happening at conception and then biology throwing a wrench into the process…
 
Could Vaatu do the same? I was sure Unavaatu could only waterbend at the end of S2. At least I remember seeing people being disapointed that Unavaatu couldn't bend all elements like the Avatar could, despite supposedly being the 'Dark Avatar'.

The spirit grants the ability to. The Avatar still has to learn all the bending techniques.
Unalag already knew how to waterbend, but he never learned the other three.

They also see this show as evil because it features Avatar Korra, who turned the world into a dystopian place, making the new Avatars look bad.

That makes sense, except the flashbacks to the first Avatar showed humans being given bending (by the lionturtles) and using it without any training or learning. Also toddler Korra was bending three elements without any training either. And then in S3 a bunch of new airbenders are able to instinctively airbend without training. Not great, but still able. So you'd figure if Unavaatu could bend all elements, he'd be doing the other three just without much skill but a lot of raw power.
 
The lion turtles where granting the innate ability both to the tribes and to Wan before he could do it.
All new airbenders used their abilities instinctively in moments of great stress. Toddler Korra was just an insane prodigy with her first three elements. The whole reason she was discovred as early as she was.

Unavaatu would have the capacity to bend all elements but he either didn't know how to or he needed a date with a lion turtle first even.

All of which proves that if you have bending, you can bend even without training. Hell, we see Katara bending in episode 1, and nobody had taught her a damn thing! So you can't really point to someone and say they can bend all four elements and just don't due to lack of training, when there are a ton of examples of untrained benders bending.

Unavaatu would have the capacity to bend all elements but he either didn't know how to or he needed a date with a lion turtle first even.

This sounds like a contradiction. If he has the capacity to bend all elements, why does he need to visit lion turtles? (What would they give him if he already has bending?) Wan had to visit the lion turtles in order to gain 4 element bending, Raava didn't magically give him full bending. And if she doesn't grant full bending, why would Vaatu?

I don't think there is anything to suggest that Vaatu can grant anyone the power to bend all four elements. Only the lion turtles can do that. Or an energy bender, although we haven't seen Aang or Korra use energy bending to give someone more than one bending power, so we don't know if they could.

Could an energy bender give someone/anyone the power to bend all four elements?
 
Yes, some people can, but that doesn't mean everyone can. We've seen many times that individual affinities for bending differ.

In S3 when the new airbenders appeared, literally the only way they had to find any of them was for them to demonstrate airbending without any training. And this included a little kid and Bumi. If the freaking Dark Avatar cannot do what Bumi could do, then he is beyond pathetic.
