M. Night Shyamalan Reveals "Avatar" DetailsPosted: September 1st, 2007 by WorstPreviews.com Staff

Apparently, the "Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Complete Book 2 Collection" DVD contains a featurette where director M Night Shyamalan talks about bringing the animated series to the big screen. IGN was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of the upcoming DVD and posted some of Shyamalan's comments.
"I really was looking for something to do where I could do these cool fighting scenes and everything," Shyamalan explains in the "Interview with Creators and M. Night Shyamalan" bonus featurette. "Avatar had such a beautiful way of doing that. The supernatural, with all of the elements -- that's another huge thing for me and it's kind of based in all of this eastern stuff; it's really beautiful ideas behind it."
The filmmaker notes that the biggest challenge he will face adapting the series to live-action will be the practical demands of the locations. "When you guys write a scene that [takes place] in the North Pole, you can do that. But we've got to be in Arctic weather for months on end," he says.
Additionally, Shyamalan lets slip that he is struggling with the challenge of streamlining the show's story to fit into three two-hour films. "It's going to be really hard for me because I really loved what you guys did and I'm finding it hard to let go of anything. At first when I put the outline together, I showed it to you guys and it basically had every single thing you guys wrote."
He is getting a grasp on the material, however, and beginning to break down the story into three self-contained films. "I think I've got to a place where I really know how to bring in the characters, and what characters I can save for the other movies, and what moments we can save for the other movies," Shyamalan says. "So it's really starting to take shape into a two-hour movie -- and I think that will happen for each of the three movies."
"I think they're going to be mostly unknown kids and teenagers," Shyamalan revealed.

"I think they're going to be mostly unknown kids and teenagers."? I don't know if that's good or bad news! There are a large handful of fans that would give pretty much anything to get a part as one of their favorite characters, I'm just curious on how they're going to go about this with lesser known actors and actresses!
