Dammit Bryke and Shyamalan, SEE WHAT YOU MADE ME DO AT WORK.

Hokay. Because I think the casting of the Last Airbender is made of supreme fail, as I mentioned last post, here are my choices for the live-action roles.

Be aware, I did end up casting two characters with white actors. But the rest are appropriately matched, I think.

Under cut, b/c it's huge and you don't want this spamming your flists no matter how sexy it is. unf. )

live-action atla, well fuck, avatar

Rick Neely would make an awesome Zuko.

Also Lara Liang would be an adorable Toph. *A*

I concur with both choices! :D

I saw Lara Liang and I was like, yes that's her! :p

LOL, why? I kind of like her with her hair up like that - she looks like she could pull off the bitchy look well. XD

Honestly, I don't like any of them. Well I hate Kristen Kreuk. But you can't really cast a 20 something woman for Katara and then cast the little boy as Aang. It sort of proves my point about how Aang and Katara gives me the willlies.

I like how they have Jackson and then a much younger girl to be Katara. This shows an age difference but keeps her close to age to Aang.

The rest you have picked aren't very diverse to be honest. This is an alternate world we're talking about, they don't have to all be of one race.

I do like your pic for Jet, but if Katara is supposed to be young, so that she can be Aang's girlfriend, then there can't be a Jet that old.

Your suki pick is okay I guess.

I think Azula should be played by the girl who voices her.

I think Taylor Lautner (I hate Twilight, I just like him in My Own Worst Enemy) would be a great Zuko, and do good with the stunts.

Katara is a little more difficult. I like who they picked because she's young, and if she's going to be kissing Aang, she has to be.

*shrug*

Zach Eisen isn't really a little boy anymore, though; that's an older pic of him (I couldn't find a recent one). He's 15 this year, so I think he'd be fine to play a 12 yr old.

*based the choices purposefully to not put Aang with Katara XD*

YAY!!!
noooo kataang!!
because IN REAL LIFE a 14 yr old girl does NOT give a 12 year old a second glance. But 16 year old boys DO attract a 14yr old girls attention!!

*raises hand* I gave a 12-year-old a second glance when I was 14. >_>

I really like your options for:
Suki, Ty lee, Azula, toph, aaang, mai, any of those zuko's would rock.

Kristen as Katara?!?! ehh,, maybe. At least she looks good with zuko. haha.
but can't stand the sokka options.

I also like the jet. :D

I think the Jet would be so sexy, esp with a bit longer hair.

*is now imagining a 3some with the Jet/Zuko/Katara actors chosen and salivating*

Either Kristen Kreuk (I've always thought she was a good live-action Katara) or the other girl, Maggie Q - I think either of them would be good, but a lot of people apparently hate Kristen Kreuk. *shrug*
