Nearly a year after the 2023 stream, Netflix held Geeked Week 2024 recently, and it was a big one for fans as it featured plenty of new info on upcoming TV shows and anime.
While the entirety of last week saw lots of new trailers and reveals, Geeked Week 2024 culminated in a special two-hour event in Atlanta that was attended by fans — a first for the event series as previous Geeked Weeks were online-only affairs.
In case you missed the stream, here is a rundown of the biggest reveals made during the live Geeked Week 2024 event:
Avatar: The Last Airbender
Perhaps the biggest news of Geeked Week was the announcement of Season 2 being in production. Along with the next season being in the works, it was also revealed that Miya Cech will play the fan-favorite Toph in Season 2.
Regarding Cech’s casting, Executive Producers Christine Boylan and Jabbar Raisani said: “We make a point of reviewing submissions separately and after countless tapes, we both had the same reaction … Miya is our Toph! Miya is a brilliant performer who knows how to precisely balance the sarcastic sense of humor, stubbornness, and vulnerability that is Toph Beifong. Her physicality and emotional dexterity really put her in a class of one.”
Arcane
Next up, Netflix shared a new clip of Arcane Season 2. Plus, Netflix also revealed the release schedule for this highly-anticipated series.
Act 1 of Season 2 will drop on November 9. Meanwhile, Cats 2 and 3 will be released on November 16 and 23, respectively. If Season 2 has the same split as Season 1, each Act will be composed of three episodes.
