Night makes appearance at Nickelodeon’s Upfront

Thursday, March 11th, 2010 by Specter

M. Night Shyamalan made an appearance at Nickelodeon’s Upfront in New York.  There is no word on if he showed any new footage from his Avatar: The Last Airbender adaptation that is coming this summer.  At the event, Nickelodeon presented their new and returning properties to exhibitors and different media.

Nickelodeon got its Thursday-morning upfront pitch rolling with an extended cameo by director M. Night Shyamalan (The Sixth Sense), who is helming the theatrical The Last Airbender for Nickelodeon Movies. Based on Nick’s animated strip Avatar: The Last Airbender, Shyamalan’s live-action flick opens July 2.

Have a question for Night about THE LAST AIRBENDER that you want an answer to?  Well, LastAirbenderFans.com’s Nightbender has been invited to a roundtable discussion with Night, and wants your questions submitted so that he can choose the best to potentially ask while at the round table.  Night will be answering the questions on video, to be posted on the website sometime later on.

For more details, follow this link: Roundtable Discussion w/ M. Night Shyamalan, Pt. 1

And for those wondering why I’m not going, to be honest, I don’t know.  But I’ve been pretty busy with marriage prep.  You see, I proposed to my girlfriend of four years on the set of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.  You can read about it at that link.  I’ve had the opportunity to meet Michael Apted, now twice, as well as Andrew Adamson and many other amazing people.  Someday, the opportunity to meet Night will present itself.  If you see him, put in a good word for me.

You may not know her name, but 15-year-old actress Nicola Peltz – who stars in the upcoming M. Night Shyamalan fantasy The Last Airbender in the role of Katara – could be changing that very soon. Here’s why, according to People.com:

M. Night gives her a rave review.
“I told the studio I didn’t want to make this movie without her,” Shyamalan tells PEOPLE. “I said that only once before in my career, and that was when I met Haley [Joel Osment] in the Sixth Sense auditions.” They’re buds off-camera, too: He came to Peltz’s 15th birthday party with his daughters.

M. Night Compares Last Airbender to The Matrix, Star Wars

Monday, February 1st, 2010 by Specter

We know that he’s previously called the Last Airbender trilogy his Lord of the Rings.  Now he’s also comparing it to Star Wars and The Matrix with good reason to do so.

For M. Night Shyamalan, it was his then 7-year old daughter who hooked him on the Nickelodeon series “Avatar: The Last Airbender.”

“She made us watch as a family and all four of us were hooked, “ Shyamalan said. “I was like, ‘This would make a killer movie.  And my wife who really has been kind of in neutral about my career was insane about it. Insane about it: ‘You have to do it. This is it. This is the one.’ ”

The Last Airbender Ad During Super Bowl XLIV

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010 by Dr Malcolm Crowe

According to Advertising Age, Paramount Pictures has purchased ad time during this year’s Super Bowl for The Last Airbender. Paramount also bought time for their other summer tent-pole film, Iron Man 2, as well as Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island. Last year’s Super Bowl pulled in an impressive 97 million viewers. That is a huge amount of exposure of Airbender if the ratings this year are the same. The commercial will likely only be between 30 and 35 seconds long, and will air sometime during the first or second quarter. Super Bowl XLIV will air February 7th on CBS.

Noah Ringer heeds Shyamalan’s call

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009 by Specter

“The Sixth Sense” director M. Night Shyamalan has a pretty good track record for launching child stars in his thrillers, but “The Last Airbender” (which bows next July) posed a special challenge since it was based on Nickelodeon’s popular “Avatar” cartoon.

“Typically I’ll find the actor and then mold the part to fit the child, but this was a pre-existing character, and I had to hope that this person existed,” Shyamalan tells Variety.
