Hello and welcome to this fantastic Avatar the Last Airbender and Legend of Korra fan blog! This blog is new and up and coming but will be sure to be amazing in the coming months! Feel free to leave suggestions and questions!
My personal blog is forgivelikeafeather.tumblr.com :)
Howdy, friends. It’s been a doozy of a year for me. Lots of ups and downs, though thankfully much more of the former than the latter. Lots of work, lots of travel, lots of monumental benchmarks, all leading up to a lot of major changes in my life and career. I’m going on a couple long road trips in the coming weeks with my best buddy Gunther, and I am looking forward to *finally* getting back to taking photos again along the way. Hopefully my long-dormant photography Tumblr blog will start getting some regular updates as a result.
I want to thank all of the absolutely incredible people I have had the pleasure of working with over my many years at Nickelodeon since I started working there over 14 years ago. So many people throughout the company, in both Los Angeles and New York, have shown an intense passion for the two series Mike and I created together. We couldn’t have done it without them. And thanks to all our friends at Studio Mir and Studio Reve for their invaluable contributions to the animation production on Korra. I wish you all the best on your future animated projects.
Thanks especially to all the wonderful Avatar and Korra fans out there in the world. I really can’t put my feelings into words. So, just… thank you. Take care of each other! I leave you with my storyboards for the final shot in the finale. I hope you all have a happy, safe, and wonderful end of the year, and an even better 2015!
For so long, all I wanted was for you to love me, to accept me. I thought it was my honor I wanted, but really, I was just trying to please you. You, my father, who banished me just for talking out of turn. My father, who challenged me, a thirteen-year-old boy, to an Agni Kai. How could you possibly justify a duel with a child?
Book 4 premieres Friday, October 3rd, on nick.com and presumably other online distributors. source
Book 4 will be 13 episodes long - Chapter 4 is titled The Calling. source
Studio Mir will animate ALL of Book 4.
Book 4 will constitute the end of The Legend of Korra.
In Australia, Book 4 will premiere in January/February 2015. It is certain that the US premiere is earlier. source
Jason Isaacs (Zhao, Book 4 likely a new character), Jason Marsden (Aye-Aye, Huan), and Anne Heche (Suyin Beifong) recorded at least one scene with Kiernan Shipka (Jinora). source
Book 4’s villain will be a new threat, not a direct tie to the Red Lotus. source
The Airbenders will take on a peackeeping Jedi Knight-like role. source
On September 1st, 2014, a commercial for Book 3 on Nicktoons began airing, which includes a clip from Book 4 featuring Kuvira.
Unclear information / rumors:
Given that Book 1 focused on Korra learning Airbending, Book 2 on the Water Tribes conflict, and Book 3 on the Earth Kindgom, it is likely Book 4 brings us to the Fire Nation and current Fire Lord, Zuko’s daughter.
Kuvira (voiced by Zelda Williams) was name-dropped several times in the finale seemingly without purpose, as well as having a sinister musical theme play when introducing herself. Book 4 footage of her looking evil was also released accidentally. For these reasons it is likely she is being set up for a bigger role in Book 4, possibly as a villain.
Book 4 is officially done and on its way! More and more information should be coming out soon, and this post will be kept up-to-date as it happens!
