The wait is over — Netflix recently released the first teaser for ‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Season 2, and it finally reveals Toph Beifong.
The short clip shows Toph using her powerful earth-bending moves in a forested area. Toph is barefoot to allow her to connect with the earth and feel the movements around her.
Toph is one of the strongest earth-benders, and she was briefly hinted at in the first season. Toph is blind, but her lack of sight makes her an even stronger fighter as she uses her ability to sense vibrations through the ground.
Netflix has cast Mia Cech as Toph Beifong. Cech is known for her roles in ‘The Darkest Mind’ and ‘Rim of the World.’
Toph played a key role in the original animated series as Aang’s teacher. She helped him grow into a stronger fighter through her tough teaching style. Her relationships with other characters like Katara and Sokka also develop in the series. They start with tension but grow into real friendships. Toph is also known for her sharp humor, especially in her interactions with Zuko.
Aang’s journey continues in season 2 as he has new challenges in the Earth Kingdom caught in the middle of a war. The city of Ba Sing Se is expected to be an important location this season. Zuko remains in pursuit of Aang.
There is no official release date yet, but Netflix confirmed that production is back on track. The teaser was part of Geeked Week which took place in Atlanta.
