Lost Star Daniel Dae Kim Will Play Fire Lord Ozai in Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender

While the showrunners of the original animated series might no longer be a part of the project, Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Avatar: The Last Airbender continues to show promise as the cast slowly gets revealed. According to a report from Deadline, Daniel Dae Kim has been cast as Fire Lord Ozai, the leader of the Fire Nation and antagonist of the entire series.

Ozai isn’t just the Fire Lord; he’s also the father of Zuko, one of the main characters of the show, and is known to be a harsh ruler and father figure that no one dares oppose. Daniel Dae Kim is known for playing Jin in the beloved TV series Lost, and has also appeared in other shows like Hawaii Five-O, The Good Doctor, and New Amsterdam.

Kim was also a part of the Avatar anime series, and has voiced General Fong in The Last Airbender, and the father of Asami Sato, Hiroshi Sato, in the sequel series, The Legend of Korra.

There’s no set release date for Netflix’s Avatar: The Last Airbender just yet, but we’ll keep you updated as more details come our way.
