New castmembers for The Last Airbender!

Fire Nation bigwigs and an Earthbender have been cast!

Aasif Mandvi will be playing Commander Zhao

Shaun Toub will be playing Uncle Iroh
[Hey, at least it won't be an M Night cameo.]

Cliff Curtis will be playing Fire Lord Ozai

[Also not M Night. The world can breath (slightly!) easier.]

Keong Sim will be playing... Earthbending Father.
I have no idea who the heck that is.

[I don't remember a character like that, and the Google isn't bringing up anything.]

Fire Nation actors look like they're potential bad-asses, provided you ignore what their characters are supposed to look like based on the TV series. The only bright side is that M Night won't be playing a pivotal role us fans will be cringing at. Hopefully.

[He might be the Cabbage Merchant, though.]
