Avatar: The Last Airbender has filled out its cast for the second season on Netflix with eight newcomers – including one prominent series villain.

As perVariety, Chin Han will play Long Feng, Hoa Xuande will play Professor Zei, Justin Chien is King Kuei, and Amanda Zhou is Joo Dee. Crystal Yu (Lady Beifong), Kelemete Misipeka (The Boulder), Lourdes Faberes (General Sung), and Rekha Sharma (Amita) round out the series of new arrivals.

If you know your Avatar, you’ll be acutely aware that the vast majority of newcomers here are part of the Earth Kingdom capital Ba Sing Se – which is on the radar of the Fire Nation and Lord Ozai after the events ofThe Last Airbender season 1’s ending.

It has already been confirmed that Avatar: The Last Airbender willcome to a close after three seasons, which should give the live-action series ample room to adapt the entire Nickelodeon animation, which ran for three ‘Books’ from 2005 to 2008. Production on season 2is now underway, but no release date has yet been given.
