Nickelodeon to set 'Last Airbender' sequel for 2011

According to the Associated Press, a sequel to Nickelodeon's Avatar: The Last Airbender is in the works. And very quickly, the studios are wasting no time with this series. The channel said Wednesday the new animated TV series will premiere in 2011. It has the working title, "The Legend of Korra."

Nickelodeon says the series will build on the "mythology" of the original "The Last Airbender" series, which inspired this summer's live-action movie from filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan.

Nickelodeon executive Brown Johnson says the new series will focus on a teenage girl avatar named Korra. Brown describes her as hotheaded, independent and "ready to take on the world."

Now my one question is who will fill the director shoes for this one, I do hope there is a change...
