Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender should be released in IMAX rather than on Paramount+ — the jaw-dropping animation is easily the best part of the hero's return

Aang flies through the air.

If a big studio movie gets leaked online in its high-quality entirety long before it's supposed to be released on a major streaming service, you know that the schedule and strategy for both have gone completely wrong.

Alas, this is exactly what happened to Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender back in April 2026, causing the release date to be brought forward by three months to July 25. On top of this, Paramount+ has relented to a dogged campaign by fans to get the new movie screened in theaters, compromising on a limited theatrical release in New York and LA between July 25 and 30.
