Chaplin’s character in Avatar: Fire and Ash is named Varang, described by creators as a formidable warrior and leader with a morally complex nature. She exists in a time period after Avatar Aang’s era, as the world begins to shift in the face of new political and spiritual challenges.

Chaplin plays Varang, a fierce and enigmatic warrior with a complex past. Her character is expected to be central to the new story arc, which delves into darker, more mature themes as the Avatar universe expands into deeper lore.
