    In the UK, Dev is pretty big over here cos' he was in Skins. Its a MASSIVE teen series and its so ... serious ... that it makes 90210 and Gossip Girl look like Hannah Montana, seriously. Dev was really good in Skins aswell. if you still have doubts that hes not up to it, search youtube for 'Skins series 1 & 2'.

    I personally think casting him will make the film be anticipated even MORE.
    i'm sorry but how is that show any different than degrassi 90210 the o.c. and gossip girl?

    I can't stand garbage like that. only stupid people get themselves into overly dramatized situations that take place in those types of shows.

    He seems to be pretty smart and confident definately not zuko qualities more sokka like. they need to switch zuko with sokka.

    Unlike all those other shows, Skins is based on normal kids in council estates and normal situations, and unlike the other shows none of them have got kncoked up. And yeah, he should be Sokka.

    Isn't Jet supposed to be super hot? (like Zuko ). Because he doesn't look super hot to me. But maybe it's just the pictures.. Then again he could have a chance, since the casting directors don't seem to care about hottness.

    I have to see him act before I can assess whether or not he would do well portraying Jet.

    I can't stand garbage like that. only stupid people get themselves into overly dramatized situations that take place in those types of shows.

    He seems to be pretty smart and confident definately not zuko qualities more sokka like. they need to switch zuko with sokka.

    Yea because high schoolers dont get pregenet?

    I dislike nights movies. I think his movies are boring with bad endings. I dont know why the creators gave him control of the movie.. I wish they would of hired someone els who would do it justices.

    also for the actors it would of been better to get unknown actors that can show there respective races of the show...

    They could get eskimos for sokka and katara asain for zuko and iroh and the rest and get a kid monk guy for aang...

    Yeah...How many eskimos do you know who would be in the movie and are actually good at acting. the problem with unknowns is that you don't know how good they are. Also, M Night was the best they good get. Would you like some wannabe actor directing this whom no one even knows?

    Do you know what you're saying? He is not playing Aang. I understand that he always plays at least one part in his movie. But they aren't major. Noah Ringer. Learn that name.
