Eska and Desna. Korra’s Waterbending cousins.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

While it has been a while since Book 1 of The Legend of Korra<\/i> wrapped up. (Paul and I have been waiting on Book 2) Here is some voice casting news (and new character news) on Book 2.\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span>Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Recreation<\/i>) will be voicing Eska, one of Korra’s waterbending cousins, while Aaron Himelstein (Joan of Arcadia) will be voicing Eska’s twin brother Desna.\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span>Dexter’s <\/i>James Remar will resume lending his voice to Tonraq, Korra’s father who is also a waterbender. It would be interesting to note that Lisa Edelstein of House M.D.<\/i> (we are big fans of House) will be playing Kya, who is Tenzin’s sister.\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span>John Micheal Higgins from Best in Show<\/i> will be playing Varrick, who is known as the ‘Biz-Bender’ (hmmm wonder what that is?). <\/i>Unalaq, Korra’s uncle and Chief of the Northern and Southern Water Tribes will be played by Son’s of Anarchy’s <\/i>Adrian LaTourelle.\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Tonraq: Korra’s father and a powerful Waterbender.\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n


<\/span>When we last saw Korra she has just triumphed against Amon and the Equalists- while Book 2 happens six months after Book 1. She now faces a bigger and greater threat when the physical and spirit worlds collide.\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span>Book 2 will be debuting later this year and has 14 episodes. Can’t wait!<\/i>\u00a0<\/span>

<\/span><\/p>\n

UPDATE!<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Here is a just released trailer fresh from SDCC!\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
http:\/\/youtube.googleapis.com\/v\/7ftLm52V1y0&source=uds<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
From what we can tell from the trailer and from whatever article has come out, Korra will be battling it out not with other benders but will be taking on the spirits from the spirit world. Which has not had that much air time or mention in the last two Avatar series. Check out the trailer above! Book 2 of The Legend of Korra is showing on September 3! \ud83d\ude42\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n
