We've reached the one-month mark before Netflix and showrunner Albert Kim's (Sleepy Hollow, Nikita) take on Avatar: The Last Airbender graces our screens, which means it's time to start rolling out the promotional machine big time. In our last update, we were treated to character posters for Gordon Cormier's Aang, Kiawentiio's Katara, Ian Ousley's Sokka, and Dallas Liu's Zuko. But now, we get a chance to see the four of them together – with a few other faces you might recognize – in a new key art poster. But that's not all! Not only did we get a poster, but we also got the heads-up that the official trailer would be hitting tomorrow – Tuesday, January 23rd.

And here's a look back at the teaser & official series overview for Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender live-action series that was released last summer, with the series set to hit screens on February 22, 2024:

Water. Earth. Fire. Air. The four nations once lived in harmony, with the Avatar, master of all four elements, keeping peace between them. But everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked and wiped out the Air Nomads, the first step taken by the firebenders towards conquering the world. With the current incarnation of the Avatar yet to emerge, the world has lost hope.

But like a light in the darkness, hope springs forth when Aang (Gordon Cormier), a young Air Nomad — and the last of his kind — reawakens to take his rightful place as the next Avatar. Alongside his newfound friends Sokka (Ian Ousley) and Katara (Kiawentiio), siblings and members of the Southern Water Tribe, Aang embarks on a fantastical, action-packed quest to save the world and fight back against the fearsome onslaught of Fire Lord Ozai (Daniel Dae Kim). But with a driven Crown Prince Zuko (Dallas James Liu) determined to capture them, it won't be an easy task. They'll need the help of the many allies and colorful characters they meet along the way.
