Series stars Ian Ousley (Sokka) and Dallas Liu (Prince Zuko) introduced a teaser previewing Toph while also announcing that Miya Cech had been officially cast in the key role. From there, the big news hit that production was officially underway on the second season – including a look at Cormier, Ousley, Liu, Cech, Elizabeth Yu, and Kiawentiio checking in from the table read.
