We got our hands on a first picture of Actor Jackson Rathbone as Sokka in Shyamalan’s Last Airbender:
Sokka is a young warrior of the Southern Water Tribe (and actually the only one left in his village since all the men have been made prisoners by the Fire Nation). With his sister, Katara, he accompanies Aang on his quest to defeat the Fire Lord. The joker of the group, Sokka describes himself as “meat-loving” and “sarcastic”. Unlike his companions, Sokka is not gifted with the power of bending an element, but the series, though it often makes him the victim of comedy at his expense, frequently grants him opportunities to use his ingenuity and weapons, including his trusty boomerang and a sword he forged from a meteorite.
(Jackson Rathbone)
I like the character of Sokka: he’s the stupid idiot who manages to stay clever and still get the girls. I bet that Jackson Rathbone will perform well as Sokka in the upcoming Last Airbender movie.
:)
Jackson Ratbone looks like Sokka. Slumber face and all is there, whoa… surely can’t wait to see his stupid idiot character. :)
This promotional photo featuring Aang, Zuko, Sokka, Katara, and a mystery Earthbender, looks brilliant!
His face is perfect, even if he is a little light-skinned.
the men from the southern water tribe were NOT captured!!!! they went to go fight in the war!!! if a person who doesnt even know that is telling me i should like all these actors here, should i really believe them?
and i LIKED the fact that water wore blue, eart wore green, etc. i thought it looked good. i’m going to miss that if they take it out (Which it looks like they did )
I don’t think Jackson Rathbone will make a good sokka. i just don’t see him being funny and…well sokka-ish. I am sorry…i just can’t see it. And i saw a pic of zuko. you can’t see his scar at all!
And why isn’t he wearing blue? WTF did they take that out?
