Apart from the plot and the acting, one of the greatest concerns of the animated series lovers would probably be the character design in the remade rendition of the original Avatar: The Last Airbender by Netflix. Zuko’s scar has been a significant feature amongst the fans and quite a lot of people have focused on the details of how and why the scar is such a unique characteristic of the character (remember M. Night Shyamalan’s retelling). However, there is a unique mark of Zuko that aims to inspire a quite iconic look.
Zuko’s Scar: Gore, but not Over-the-Top
And precisely for this reason, a lot of emphasis was put into the design and little aspects of its making. It is said that Zuko’s scar makes him worse look a lot worse than what he truly is and from Dallas Liu’s point of view, he claims that he put in a lot of time in the mocking the Zuko’s scar quite convincingly and it felt quite overwhelming. The story behind Zuko’s scar is filled with dark emotions and such tragic tales has to be told but in a humane and gentle manner.
Liu explained to Moviepilot: “I worked with our makeup head to devise a scar that would be appropriate for the elder person but at the same time be okay for younger audiences. So no blistered burns or melted flesh.” ‘So, in that case, what kind of skin blemishes are there in ashy American internet shows’.
One time, they were developing something for the scar that had an entirely different vision in mind but the idea became too graphic for actual shooting. Liu remembered, and then gruesome scars will kill the audience of the show – “I’ll be heaven please,” ‘The most extreme design never script, found the look where the imploded spoon sat on my cheek cut rest my rough, covered in holes. It is terrible’.
This stamp was too horrible for her also Makim, the series’ showrunner, who preferred something attractive to a larger audience. Liu, though, acknowledges that he sought to increase its intensity. ‘I can easily win, all techniques in Showreel! I want to emphasize what the younger audiences allow ourselves to God. I swear even fingers reach Albert after even yelling pitch an opinion “If you allowed me to do the casting over there” ‘Nobody wants meters away’”.
However, Nguyen does not seem to be very concerned about this. In his words, ‘the scar is not sky or myself, I feel we were assigned more than limbs’. Still Legendary. Also, the scar is cool, or far from what I imagined people would remember, but it Exactly did not happen.
