We Have Toph for Live Action Avatar Show!
Remember the live action Avatar: The Last Airbender show from earlier this year? It was a huge hit, and will be coming back for two more seasons. I can barely remember that show, and I’m pretty sure I was lukewarm about it. But they have now cast actor Miya Cech as Toph Beifong, the Earthbender!
Toph is a great character, obviously, so hopefully Cech can bring even a fraction of her charisma from the cartoon into the live action show. I don’t know Cech’s work, but good for her landing this role in this hit show! I look forward to watching the show going forward.
I’m not sure when it will return, but the live action Airbender (and Earthbenders!) will be back on Netflix one of these days!

More Arcane is Coming!
Sadly, we have since learned that the second and upcoming season of Arcane: League of Legends will be the end of it. Maybe it costs a lot of money to do all that amazing animation? It obviously takes time, considering season one came out in 2021. Whatever the case may be, we’re just gonna have to appreciate this second season all the more when it comes out in two months!
Looks great! Nothing too spoilery in that trailer. It just looks like some awesome action, some awesome character development and all that good stuff! I don’t know the first thing about League of Legends, so I don’t recognize any of the new characters in that trailer. But the first season ones look awesome. Can’t wait!
Arcane season two comes to Netflix sometime in November.

Tuesday Trailer Dump
So I haven’t been very busy posting the past few days because I’ve been busy and because we’re at the start of a heat wave here. It’s gonna be 90+ degrees farenheit where I live for a week straight. That’s insane! So I’m hoping to survive any way that I can, and that includes not worrying about posting.
But I’ve got time now to put this together, so I thought I’d just dump a bunch of trailers I’ve been saving up and talk about them all at once! Just to let you know about some upcoming shows that have me interested. I think they’re mostly shows or show-like projects.
First up, the final season of The Umbrella Academy is coming up. I very much enjoy this show and look forward to seeing it through to the end. Honestly, anything could happen, and I’m down for that.
Looks like fun! Let it be wild and end on a good note. Glad they got to finish this one.
The Umbrella Academy returns to Netflix on Aug. 8.
Next up is a trailer for the next season of Dimension 20! I’ve been a subscriber to Dropout since the very beginning, and I really should feature more of their shows and trailers. They’re becoming way more mainstream, which is awesome! Dimension 20 is their live action role playing show, and next season is Never Stop Blowing Up.
Looks to be a Jumanji situation, where a bunch of characters get sucked into a VHS tape and become new action movie characters. Sadly, there don’t appear to be any sets, but I don’t think they’re playing Dungeons & Dragons this time. I think it’s a homebrew take on Kids on Bikes. So we’ll see!
Never Stop Blowing Up comes to Dropout on June 26, so next week! How exciting.
Lastly, to take things in a complete random direction, is this trailer I saw and liked about a TV show called Sunny coming to AppleTV+. Not every show on that service is a straight up banger, like when I first started watching, but most are pretty good.
Anyway, Sunny is about Rashida Jones investigating the death of her husband with the help of one of those modern robots, in Japan. Could be neat and weird.
I like weird and neat. And I’m largely open to new shows, especially if I randomly find them myself. So this could be something fun! Or maybe nobody will ever talk about it ever again. We’ll see.
Sully comes to AppleTV+ on July 10.

Arcane Season 2 Trailer!
I didn’t know this was coming today, but heck yeah, it’s here! The first full trailer for Arcane season 2! The hit show that took everybody by storm a few years ago is coming back for more! And it looks great!
Look, simple as this: Arcane season 1 was amazing. And there’s every indication that season 2 will be just as good, if not better. So I’m getting everybody’s hopes up! Live the hype! Love the hype! Watch and enjoy!
Arcane season 2 is coming to Netflix in November.

Cool Tomb Raider Anime On the Way
Hollywood has been trying to make Tomb Raider a thing for a long time now. I’m not the biggest Tomb Raider fan in the world. I barely ever played those original games, and only played two of three of the modern reboot. I’m not sure why I didn’t play through that last one even though I very much enjoyed the first two…
Anyway, the people who brought the truly awesome Castlevania cartoon are now making a Tomb Raider one!
I loved that Castlevania show. And while Tomb Raider is not on my List of Six of other games that could use a cool, R-rated cartoon, it’s still a solid option. Everybody loves Lara Croft and all sorts of cartoon magic could happen if you put your mind to it, things that the most recent movie reboot couldn’t get right for whatever reason.
Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft is coming to Netflix on Oct. 10.
