Out of EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER in this production, he's the only person I've seen perform in a film (I refuse to watch Twilight, sorry Jackson). However, since being revealed as Zuko, there's a great part of me that rages inside. Don't get me wrong, his acting in Slumdog was pretty good, but by nature, he doesn't seem to fit the angsting, dark-sided teenager that we call Zuko. And is it just me or he fails to resemble Zuko? I've stated before that he looks like a dark-skinned Zuko cosplayer that just rolled out of bed, and I still stand by that.

Anyone else beg to differ?

I totally agree with that...BUT

After seeing the movie, he was the only actor who really portrayed the character role accurately. He may not have looked anything like the "real" Zuko, but he sure acted like him.

He would've done a bazillion times better as Zuko if the dialogue they gave him hadn't been absolute crap. Sad

I very agree with the last three posts. I thought he was a pretty good Zuko...but...yeah...crappy dialogue.
