The Last Airbender: Dev Patel, Part 2
Listen now
Description
How did Dev Patel follow up his one-in-a-million breakthrough debut in Slumdog Millionaire? By starring in one of the most hated movies of all time! This week, Caroline and Ned reluctantly dive into the world of M. Night Shyamalan's The Last Airbender, and try to figure out what went wrong with this disastrous adaption of a beloved animated series. You can watch Dev talk about his experience on The Last Airbender as part of a 2016 Hollywood Reporter roundtable (youtu.be/YyQGKSzYqBg). Also check out this guide to why you should watch the animated series (instagram.com/p/CAehPPFDsYv) and Xiran Jay Zhao's impressive thread on the show's cultural influences (twitter.com/XiranJayZhao/status/1340444180837855232?s=20).
