Wait, isn’t Daniel Dae Kim going to be live-action Ozai on Netflix? That’s some dedication to the franchise lol
Right!!
Yeah, what’re the odds????
Yes
He always plays the villains too
Eh general fong wasn’t really a villain the war just drove him mad
Serena Williams?!? that's wild
Yup!
Yes, prison guard ming
I found that out just last year.
Brooo!!!
I thought I recognized that voice
JK SIMMONS has such a recognizable voice, that when i heard Tenzin's voice for the first time i knew i recognized that voice somewhere and was surprised to see him voicing the role. I can't imagine Tenzin with another voice. Perfect casting
Yea thats the best reveal. Should have been saved for the last
@@RAGNES7 I caught his voice right away, Simmons is a treasure!
Isn’t Omni Man also voiced by JK Simmons, that’s impressive
Eeyup.
@@cassiopeiathew7406 yes
Ah, so Eska was voiced by Aubrey Plaza... I don't recall ever being less surprised by completely new information. It all just fits so perfectly.
But they had a slip-up and called her "April" at the end of that segment 😄
@@djoscartjApril is the character she played in the show parks and recreation. Eska is dark and gloomy like the character April and that’s why they said April at the end I think
I don't recall her being called April
She was perfect. I know her voice anywhere.
When I first heard Tenzin, I swore he was going to tell Korra to go and get pictures of Spider-Man
Еvery cop in the Republic city is spider man.
Can you imagine if he did the "You serious?!"
@@minkusaurus Would be amazing.
😂😂
Zelda Williams(Robin William's daughter) voiced Kuvira. And Steve Blum voiced Amon
I think this is for the lessor known characters. Both characters you named are well known
@@stevenbrown1762 So are Tenzin and Fire Lord Ozai lesser known characters?
Nepotism alive and well, even in wholesome cartoons.
@@blitzspitz Yes.
Zelda Williams is a really awesome actress and knew how to make people think she was a monster. And as a nod to her iconic role, she rocks emerald tones on the red carpet.
and now Daniel Dae Kim is Ozai in the live action ATLA series!
You mean ozai
@@1qstudios yes you're right, my bad 😂
You mean dr Han himself?
@@DANHP-duke15 Heck yeah!
I liked his character Jin-Soo Kwon on Lost(2004) I don't speak Korean but Jin-Soo Kwon and Sun-Hwa Kwon had emotional moments that made me cry many times.
Besides Rami Malek and J.K. Simmons there's another Oscar winner - Eva Marie Saint, who played the older Katara in _The Legend of Korra_ . Fun fact: Eva Marie Saint is currently both the oldest living and earliest surviving Academy Award winner today at 98 years old. She won the Best Supporting Actress award for the 1954 Elia Kazan film _On the Waterfront_ starring alongside Marlon Brando.
She was a Hitchcock Blonde.
Literally one of the pioneers of cinema she is. North by Northwest is lowkey a top 5 movie IMO and she was fantastic in it.
Fun fact about the boulder: apparently they tried to get The Rock himself to voice him (it’s obvious who the boulder was based off of) and he wanted to do it, but he was too busy so he asked his buddy mick foley to do it.
Whaaaat?!!! Mankind!? Hahahaha So awesome that The Boulder was actually voiced by a WWE wrestler!! So cool!
I would have loved it either way, but with Mick Foley being a master of multiple distinct wrestling personalities, I feel like it was a perfect fit. I see The Boulder as just another one of those personas, honestly XD
Fun fact Steven Yuen and JK Simmons later work together again for INVINCIBLE!!!!!!
Tenzin's voice was a catch for me right away JK Simmons has a recognizable voice like Hammill.
Now Serena William, Foley and Rami Malek were a surprise for me.
Funny, I didn't recognize Mark Hamill, but I had just watched Mr. Robot for the second time before watching LOK and so Rami Malek was instantly recognizable for me. His character in LOK speaks exactly like Elliott from Mr. Robot
@@pabloc8808 greatest show ever
Mick Foley did his best to act like the Rock because Dwayne Johnson was suppose to have the role but he was unavailable
This series was absolutely star studded and I didn't even realise. Absolutely wholesome.
I think it's amazing that J.K. Simmons went from voicing Tenzin a loving and caring father and hero to voicing Omni-Man a character who couldn't be further from Tenzin if you tried.
And then you have Steven Yun who voices invincible
Both former _Avatar_ franchise stars that work really well together for a father-son pair.
Eh, I'd say Fletcher is further from Tenzin than Omni-man is and I didn't even have to include a different actor. All 3 are teachers to the protagonist of the story they're in but, at their core, Fletcher is the most ruthless, the most willing to use psychological harm as part of his teachings. Omni-man would punish Mark in the most gruesome of ways (I know your comment is 11 months old so I'm assuming only season 1 knowledge), but he did it out of frustration. It wasn't how he wanted it to go. For Fletcher, it's all cold and calibrated. It's all deliberate. A worthy price for greatness.
Does Clancy Brown fit in? Incredible that while he voiced Long Feng and Yakone here, he also famously played Mr. Krabs, Lex Luthor, the 4 Brainiacs merge in "Legion of Superheroes", Mr. Sinister, Prison Captain Hadley, etc.
Speaking of the Avatarverse and DC's connections, who would be excellent for Mako as a brooding Bats-related detective (excluding the true Batman Kevin Conroy and Adam West who are above us all)?:
Bruce Greenwood
Jenson Ackles
Jason O'Mara
Troy Baker
Diedrich Bader
William Baldwin
What about the actors who played Batman in live action?
Michael Keaton
Val Kilmer
George Clooney
Christian Bale
Ben Affleck
Robert Pattinson
Clancy Brown even shows up in Star Wars Rebels.
Clancy Brown played the Kurgan in the 1986 movie Highlander, one of the best over-the-top movie villains.
@@mori1bund He was funny on Pet Sematary 2.
@@Jin_KaiAnd in the Nickelodeon's Tmnt
What about kuvira she voiced by robin Williams daughter zelda Williams
She's got the Triforce of Wisdom for sure!
Other famous celebrities in ATLA and LOK include Robert Patrick (T-1000 in Terminator 2) voicing Piandao, and Kiernan Shipka (Sally Draper on Mad Men) voicing Jinora.
Oh yeah! I think Kiernan went on to play the titular character in the _Chilling Adventures of Sabrina_ Netflix series then.
For me dave faustino was the biggest suprise of all stars but it's probably cuz i watched married with children non stop as a child
What I'm most surprised about is that Serena Williams was in the Avatar that's crazy. But also I had no idea so many famous actors were in Avatar & Korra
8:13 - 9:20 Speaking about General Fong and Hiroshi Sato, I'm even got news that Daniel Dae Kim will be playing Fire Lord Ozai in the Netflix live action series Avatar: The Last Airbender in this summer!
Wow. I can not believe that Mark Hamill and Jason Isaacs were playing Ozai and Zhao respectively. I could not recognize!
knew about the others but these 2 !!! and i watched both avatars a bunch of times...
I instantly recognized Tenzin but I didn’t know that was Steven Yeun! Father and son together in another universe
Tenzin was J K Simmons
Tenzin: "That was a 2000-year old artifact... You're fired!"
Jinora: "She's the only Avatar there is"
Tenzin: "Right. You're un-fired"
0:33 Aubrey Plaza (Eska)
1:21 Rami Malek (Tahno)
2:24 JK Simmons (Tenzin)
3:02 Steven Yeun (Avatar Wan)
4:07 Mark Hamill (Ozai)
5:03 Jason Isaacs (Zhao)
5:42 Serena Willaims (Ming)
5:47 Serena Williams (Sage)
6:20 George Takei (Ship Warden)
7:05 Mick Foley (The Boulder)
7:57 Tinashe (On Ji)
9:00 Daniel Dae Kim (Fong, Hiroshi, Ozai in the Netflix live action)
What about singer, actor, author, spoken word performer, and Grammy Award winner Henry Rollins as Zaheer?
TINASHE!?!!? TINASHE?!? TINASHE!?!!!?
Don’t Forget Long Feng And Yakone Played By Clancy Brown Known For Voicing Mr Krabs From SpongeBob
Clancy Brown is better known for voicing Lex Luthor in the DCAU.
Wait wait wait. You’re telling me that the Daniel Dae Kim, the perfect casting for Fire Lord Ozai in the live-action show, already was in the Avatar universe, TWICE! Now that’s surprising
"April is the embodiment of Eska" script goof
I came to the comments just to confirm I heard what I heard 😂
Mick Foley and Sereena Williams? This just is full of surprises to me but those were the biggest 2 to me.
Not enough people talking about how Daniel Dae Kim is also gonna be live action Ozai
I was gonna say that
you forgot firelord Sozin he's voiced by Ron perlman aka Slade by teen titans
The fact that Mick Foley was voicing "The Boulder" really set homage to the Attitude Era when he teamed up with THE ROCK!
Honestly. Getting Mick was smart knowing how close he was to Rock at the time. I think he voiced Foley around 2005ish so a year prior wrestling evolution at Wrestlemania with Rock
How could you forget Zuko ?! Everyone who saw the movie Hook would know that voice from anywhere! “Ru-fi-ooooo!”
If there is ever a prequel series about the 6 named Avatars before Korra & Aang (Roku, Kyoshi, Kuruk, Yangchen, Szeto, & Salai), I would like George Takei to return to voice either Szeto or Salai.
He's back as a Spirit in the live action show.
it would have been great for the Boulder to say "Have a nice day" after his fight. But I don't think the younger audiences would catch that
But Mark Hamill's voice is ICONIC. Period.
This video made me want to hear "Curse you, He-Man!" in Ozai's voice 😆💀
You guys should definitely make another list like this. 😃
The only one that actually caught me off guard was the R&B singer “Tinashe” lol like very random but cool. Everyone else I already knew from the first avatar books 📚
Eska's voice makes so much sense now...
Another worthy mention is Lance Henriksen. Best known for The Terminator and Aliens. He voiced Amon's Lieutenant in Legend of Korra.
He also voice some bigshot admiral in Mass Effect. Where he as Hackett gives a chilling speech at the end of ME3
Daniel Dae Kim is the Fire Lord now!
Stephen Yeun went to my college (years after I did) and was part of the improv group I helped found. Cricket Leigh, who plays Mai, played a lost boy alongside me in a production of Peter Pan.
Love how Micck Folley impersonate The Rock as The Boulder.
He was supposed to be impersonating The Rock, but it sounded much closer to Macho Man Randy Savage.
@@robertlunderwood oh yeaaaaah
"Are you rushing or dragging?"
That line would have been a cool Easter egg if Tenzin said those words.
This list was very surprising 😮 I can’t believe JK simmons, Serena Williams and Mick foley were voices on TLA!!
Should have mentioned Mae Whitman and Dante Basco.
I love JK Simmons, and it's really cool that he voices Tenzin! I was really surprised when I found that out for the first time!
The actor of Luke Skywalker voiced Ozai! WHAT?! I didn't know that!
Daniel Dae Kim is great! And it's so cool that he's also getting one of the main roles in the live action Avatar Netflix series! He's playing ozai! And he's literally perfect for the live-action ozai! 😆😆😆😆
THIS WAS REALLY INTERESTING!
In case you also didn't know, Mark Hamil(Luke Skywalker), voiced The Joker as well.
@@johnlucas6683 👍
@@johnlucas6683It completely made sense to me after rewatching old clips of BTAS and ATLA. The voices are _way_ too similar to be a coincidence.
I LOVE the fact that Mr. Cave Johnson is in the Avatar universe
Funnily enough, I recognized Daniel Dae Kim by the jawline in his silhouette rather than his voice lol
These guest stars are incredible.
As soon as I heard osai talk, I knew it was mark hamill. I hadn't known mark hamill for star wars or arkham joker yet, so I never noticed. I actually shocked, he played a character completely opposite to luke.
This was awesome 😩😩❤️❤️
Suyin Beifong was voiced by the late Anne Heche who tragically passed away in a brutal car accident. Why is nobody talking about her?
Steven Yeun is also Mark Grayson from Invincible
This was awesome 👍🏾
I can not believe Rene Auberjois! He played the Mechanic and the leader of the GanGin. Plus he was Odo on DS9!
I even know Rene for voicing Mr. House in Fallout: New Vegas.
Tewksbury on Frasier.
I had no idea Rami Malek was Tahno! I only recognized him as Ahkmenrah from the night at the Museum film trilogy!! Thank you so much for including his photo. Those two roles were way better than what little I saw of the character in Mr. Robot.
Glenn Rhee as Avatar Wan!!!!????? I can't believe it!! 😭😭😭
this makes me like these actors even more! stephen and jason 😍🔥 ugh!
the fact that the actor for hiroshi also played ozai in the live action is insane
Isn’t Daniel Dae Kim is going to play FireLord Ozi in the Netflix live action remake series?
Yep. 😺
the boulder part cracks me up every time i hear/see that scene 🤣🤣🤣
Let's not forget Henry Rollins as Zaheer ❤
Rami Malek 💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
Mark Hammel turned into the Firelord after he saw the script for the new Starwars arc.
9:02 how the tables turned
now he's playing the FIRELORD in live action
So, you forgot Ron Perlman who voiced Firelord Sozin.
I know almost all of these actors, knew half when I first watched it, was more familiar with them today, but I still never recognized them when I rewatched the franchise two years ago.
Solid voice acting and casting.
i need to binge watch this series again now
Cool actors even if I barely know them. Nice transition from ozai to zhao
Daniel BAE Kim was amazing and he will make us proud when he becomes FIre Lord Ozai
I didnt know Fire Lord Ozai voiced characters
Wow did all these actors really work on the avatar? this always had that movie like feel to it, the story and the voices
Ron Perlman as Sozin
Robert Patrick as Piandao
Steve Blum as Amon
Zelda Williams as Kuvira
Tress MacNeille as Hama
James Hong as Monk Tashi and Mayor Tong
René Auberjonois as the Mechanist and the Gan Jin leader
Lance Henriksen as Amon's Lieutenant
When i first watched this, i knew it was Aubrey Plaza. i loved it!
Ohh myy, how did I not hear some of these?! Only knew Aubrey and Mark
Did NOT know Daniel Dae Kim was in Avatar, and I should have caught his voice right away, considering how much I played Saints Row.
He will be voicing the Netflix incarnation of Ozai
Mark Hamill is the GOAT
No, I am a firelord like my father before me
I recognized jk Simmons and George takei's voice fairly quickly in this. Mark Hamill's voice I recognized just before they revealed him as I heard the joker voice at the last second
Also, Lisa Edelstein (Cuddy from House) voices Kya in the legend of Korra!
5:42 didn’t know that the goat voiced Ming
That's why I was excited for ozai in the live action btw
I love how this show has touched everyone’s heart 🥹
Interestingly enough, Aubrey was asked about her experience voicing Eska one time and she didn't even know who that was. She had no memory of even doing it and didn't really seem to care for the franchise. "Eska? I don't know who that is.... Oh yeah... I did do a character for that show. I don't remember much of it."
René Auberjonois(Odo on Deep Space 9) did the voice of Mechanist and Gan Jin leader.
Interesting that you mention Invincible whilst building up JK Simmons because I often compare his Tenzin performance to his Omni-Man performance.
Omg so shocked by alot of theese
That's awesome
I like Mindy Sterling as Lin Beifong being known previously for her Austin Powers work as Frau
JK Simmons and Mark Hamil were probably the easiest one. NOW GET ME PICTURES OF SPIDER-MAN!!! Oh what the heck, I'll laugh anyway!
I remember I was watching parks and rec when they brought Korra to Netflix and I was sitting there saying (before watching season 2 started ) aubrey Plaza would be so perfect for Eska like absolutely same personality. Got to season 2 and ways like “wait!! OMG WAIT?! It can’t be!!!!” Waited till the credits rolled and lost my mind!
Tinashe, Serena, and audrey????!!! Whoa
I had no idea JK Simmons was the voice of Tenzin!
I never new this celebration
Hol up! Not a single mention of Master Piandao played by Robert Patrick? They even made a T-1000 reference!
5:50 I found Azula's twin sister.
1:58
*What a scene!*
😲😮 a character we barely saw was such a big star
YEAH my man the Hardcore Legend Mick Foley!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀
WHOA, I never knew Mark Hamill voiced Fire Lord Ozai! What a shocker! 😲
LOK was also a break out role for Chilling Adventures of Sabrina star Kiernan Shipka who voices Jinora.
