Part of me just wants them to cast a super jacked guy and just never bring it up while still keeping them a she/her in the scripts
The Boulder feels conflicted about trying out for the part of a young, blind girl.
I hope they... err--see this.
I see what you did there
Who said that?!
Seems a bit weird to me that submissions are via a Gmail address.
That is scam yall are aware of that right?
It has been posted on the official account of Jenny Jue. She would be risking her career if she was putting out casting calls without being authorized to do so.
It troubles me that this casting and filming is so late. The actors will look even older. I don't think they're planing a timeskip. Since the second season starts immediately after the south water tribe battle.
I don't expect the timeline of the Netflix series to match the animated series. They'll probably make the journey longer to account for actors aging.
I have doubts about this picture though, the gmail address is the first red flag, but there are others. To me, this is more likely to be fake than real.
BTW, even in the original series, Aang's voice actor aging was becoming a problem. He said on the podcast (Braving the Elements) that it's a good thing the show ended after season 3 because he was already straining and didn't have a 4th season in him. If it had come to that I think they'd probably recast him with a voice double, but it's a good thing it didn't come to that!

I'm also glad it didn't come to that. It was already a noticeable change when they had to find a new voice actor for Iroh, let alone when you need to replace the actor for the titular character. Not that I don't respect the work of Greg Baldwin of course, but for me Mako Iwamatsu was the one and only Uncle Iroh. It's a shame he wasn't able to complete his character's journey.

If you're blind then how would you even be able to tell if you were Asian?!
And how would you tell you're blind?
Oddly enough, this could have been a video
Me: middle-aged American man who can see "I should audition."
Blind
Dance and Martial arts experience
What?
They are trying to check the disability box while also needing an out for when they choose someone who can actually do the physical aspect. (Yes, a blind person could probably manage on their own, but if you need to choreograph with other people, it might get complicated...that being said, I would love if the actual actress was blind and successful in the role, that would be super cool)
So this is what Hasan was auditioning for. Hmmmmm.
The Boulder better watch his ass;
The Blind Bandit approaches.
