Based on a new report, the identity of the actor set to portray Jet in Netflix’s live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender series has been revealed. According to Knight Edge Media, Sebastian Amoruso will play the fan-favorite anti-hero.

Jet was introduced during Book One of the animated series as the leader of the Freedom Fighters. When Aang and the gang ran into him and his comrades, it seemed like Jet was simply stealing supplies from the Fire Nation. However, after it was revealed he planned to drown an entire Earth Kingdom town to take out an enemy encampment, the two groups were at odds, with Aang stopping Jet and leaving him behind.
