THE LAST AIRBENDER is arriving in a DVD/Blu-ray Combo pack ($29.99), single disc DVD ($19.99) and single disc Blu-ray ($24.99) on November 16, 2010 from Paramount Home Entertainment.

Based on the animated TV series Avatar: The Last Airbender, M. Night Shyamalan's live-action tells the story of four nations, Air, Water, Earth and Fire, locked in an age-old conflict that can only be ended by the Avatar - a single boy with the power to manipulate all four elements.

THE LAST AIRBENDER DVD/Blu-ray Combo pack boasts over two hours of in-depth, behind-the-scenes special features including a nine-part documentary on the making of the film, a featurette entitled "Origins of the Avatar," which documents the creative transformation of the hit animated series to the big screen, picture-in-picture insights from the cast and crew that deconstruct some of the amazing action and visual effects sequences, deleted scenes, outtakes and more. The film also will be available as a single disc DVD or single disc Blu-ray, both of which include "Origins of the Avatar," deleted scenes and outtakes.
