**Daniel Dae Kim** has a villainous new gig!

He's joined Netflix's live action adaptation of *Avatar: The Last Airbender* and will play Fire Lord Ozai, the father of Prince Zuko and Princess Azula.

The streaming service made the announcement on[ Twitter](https://twitter.com/netflix/status/1456011021345120261?ref=celebritykind.ghost.io) describing his character as "the ruthlessly-driven leader of the Fire Nation!"

Daniel also confirmed the news on his Insta sharing a gif of the animated Fire Lord with the caption, "it's gettin' hot in here..."

Daniel has been involved in the *Last Airbender* franchise a number of times already including in 2006, when he voiced General Fong in the animated series by Nickelodeon and the video game that came out a year later.

He's already had a busy year co-starring in National Geographic's *The Hot Zone: Anthrax* which is due out later this month.

No word on when we'll get to see him as the Fire Lord just yet.
