A fresh era of the beloved animated franchise arrives as Avatar: Seven Havens premieres on October 9, 2026, exclusively on Paramount+. Created by franchise masterminds Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, the fantasy series is produced by Nickelodeon and Avatar Studios. Set roughly 225 years after the conclusion of The Legend of Korra, the story plunges viewers into a radically transformed, post-apocalyptic world shaped by an unprecedented cataclysm.
Unlike previous installments where the Avatar is welcomed as a universal symbol of peace and balance, the new series turns that tradition on its head. The narrative follows a young Earthbender named Pavi, who discovers she is the new Avatar in an era where humanity views the figure as a dangerous threat rather than a savior. Hunted by both human adversaries and hostile spirits, Pavi and her long-lost twin sister, Nisha, must uncover their mysterious origins to protect the Seven Havens-civilization’s final remaining strongholds.

Book 1 of Avatar: Seven Havens consists of 13 half-hour episodes out of a total 26-episode series order. Rather than releasing all at once, Paramount+ is rolling out the episodes weekly in batches throughout October 2026:
- Episodes 1 to 3: Friday, October 9
- Episodes 4 to 6: Friday, October 16
- Episodes 7 to 9: Friday, October 23
