Avatar: The Last Airbender fans are delighted to see James Sie being cast as the fan-favorite Cabbage Merchant
“My Cabbages!” is a line that every Avatar: The Last Airbender fan is familiar with. While live-action adaptations haven’t done all that well for most series, fans are pretty excited to see James Sie being cast as the Cabbage Merchant in the series. This character was a poor vendor who would end up getting stuck in the wrong place at the wrong time. His cart full of cabbages would end up getting destroyed, and that’s how the iconic lines “My Cabbages!” became a bit of a running gag.
This character’s reference could also be seen in Legend of Korra, the sequel to the original title. The Cabbage Merchant’s son appears in the series, and James Sie also voiced this character. Given James Sie’s popularity, there is no doubt that fans have another reason to look forward to Avatar: The Last Airbender’s live-action version that Netflix will produce.
