After pushed back from August 13 of this year to January 14, 2011, the U.S. release for the film is once again delayed.

The film follows Aang and is set in a world where human civilization is divided into four nations: Water, Earth, Air and Fire. Teaming up with Waterbender named Katara and her brother Sokka, Aang proceeds on a perilous journey to restore balance to their war-torn world.

As for "Priest", the story is set in a world ravaged by centuries of war between man and vampires. The movie revolves around Paul Bettany's Priest, a legendary warrior who disobeys church law by teaming with a young sheriff and a priestess to track down a murderous band of vampires who have kidnapped his niece.
