Shyamalan finds cast for The Last Airbender
Wednesday, December 10th, 2008 by Dr Malcolm Crowe |It looks as if director M. Night Shyamalan has found his cast for The Last Airbender. The would-be cast is mostly filled with unknowns and minor stars, all of which Shyamalan aims to make household names when The Last Airbender opens in July of 2010.
“After an open casting call in Texas, Shyamalan discovered karate star Noah Ringer and offered him the part of Airbender’s 12-year old hero, Aang, an Avatar with superpowers who must stop the Fire Nation from destroying the world. Twilight’s Jackson Rathbone has been asked to play Aang’s pal Sokka, while Nicola Peltz (Deck the Halls) will star as his sister Katara. Genial singer Jesse McCartney, meanwhile, is negotiating to play against type in the role of the Fire Nation’s evil prince Zuko.”
