Anna Sawai, Izaac Wang and ‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Cast Among Unforgettable Gala Honorees (EXCLUSIVE)
Tumblr media
Anna Sawai (“Shogun”), Izaac Wang (“Didi”) and the cast of Netflix’s live-action “Avatar: The Last Airbender” will be honored at the 22nd annual Unforgettable Gala (UNFO).
Produced by GoldenTV and Character Media, the UNFO is the premier Asian American awards gala, honoring the biggest and brightest API talent in entertainment and media. Since 2002, the Unforgettable Gala has grown to become the API community’s longest-running awards ceremony.
“Didi” stars Joan Chen and Wang’s honors for Actor in Film and Breakout in Film, respectively, add more accolades to the indie Sundance award-winning hit’s belt. Meanwhile, Sawai’s win for Actor in TV is yet another victory after her Emmy win for best actress in a drama series.
The “Avatar: The Last Airbender” cast will receive the Vanguard Award at this year’s Unforgettable Gala. Other honorees include Hoa Xuande for his breakout role in “The Sympathizer,” Sean Wang for directing “Didi,” Rachel Kondo for her writing on “Shogun” and “Your Rich BFF” creator Vivian Tu for her work as a digital influencer. 
“Every year, we come together to honor the incredible API talent that continues to push boundaries and break down barriers in Hollywood and beyond,” said GoldenTV CEO Takashi Cheng said in a statement Thursday. “This year’s honorees represent the breadth and depth of API excellence across entertainment, arts and culture.”
The awards are voted and determined by a selection committee co-chaired by Adele Lim and Eugene Lee Yang and including Awkwafina, Bing Chen, Destin Daniel Cretton, Daniel Dae Kim, Lisa Ling, Simu Liu, Randall Park, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, Janet Yang and more. Actor Anna Cathcart, CAPE executive director Michelle Sugihara and actor Daniel Wu are among this year’s award presenters.
The gala is set to take place Dec. 14 with a broadcast of the ceremony airing Dec. 18 on ChimeTV and streaming at GetGolden.TV.
The 2024 Unforgettable Gala honorees are listed below: 
Joan Chen (Chungsing Wang in “Didi”) – Actor in Film 
Anna Sawai (Lady Toda Mariko in “Shogun”) – Actor in TV 
Izaac Wang (Chris Wang in “Didi”) – Breakout in Film 
Hoa Xuande (The Captain in “The Sympathizer”) – Breakout in TV

‘Avatar: The Last Airbender’ Season 2 Finds Its Joo Dee, Long Feng, The Boulder and Casts ‘Sympathizer’ Star Hoa Xuande (EXCLUSIVE)
Tumblr media
Netflix‘s “Avatar: The Last Airbender” live-action series has added eight actors to the cast of Season 2, Variety has learned exclusively. 
The new cast members are: Chin Han (“Mortal Kombat,” “Skyscraper”), Hoa Xuande (“The Sympathizer,” “Top of the Lake: China Girl”), Justin Chien (“The Brothers Sun,” “The Great Leap”), Amanda Zhou (“Spinning Out,” “The Handmaid’s Tale”), Crystal Yu (“Doctor Who,” “Good Omens”), Kelemete Misipeka (“Sons of Thunder,” “Ray Donovan” ), Lourdes Faberes (“The Sandman,” “Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre”), and Rekha Sharma (“Yellowjackets,” “Battlestar Galactica”). 
Han will play Long Feng, who was the leader of Ba Sing Se secret police, the Dai Li, in the animated Nickelodeon series. Xuande will play Professor Zei, head of the anthropology department at Ba Sing Se University in the original series who was obsessed with finding Wan Shi Tong’s Library.
Chien will play King Kuei, ruler of the Earth Kingdom. Zhou will play Joo Dee, a public servant and guide for important visitors in Ba Sing Se. Yu will play Lady Beifong, Toph’s mother. Misipeka will play The Boulder, a professional earthbending wrestler. Faberes will play General Sung, a high-ranking Earth Army commander. Sharma will play a new character named Amita.
It should be noted that the live-action version has already made several changes to individual characters as well as storylines, so these versions of the characters mentioned above may not correspond exactly to their counterparts in the original show. 
The new additions join returning cast members Gordon Cormier, Kiawentiio, Ian Ousley, Dallas Liu, Elizabeth Yu, Paul Sun-Hyung Lee, Daniel Dae Kim, Momona Tamada and Thalia Tran. It was previously announced that Miya Cech will be joining the series as Toph Beifong.
“Avatar: The Last Airbender” is currently in production at Netflix in partnership with Nickelodeon. Netflix has already renewed the show through Season 3, concluding with the “Book of Fire” just like the animated version.
Jabbar Raisani and Christine Boylan are executive producers and showrunners on the series. Albert Kim, who developed the live-action version, also executive produces along with Dan Lin, Ryan Halprin, and Brendan Ferguson.
