Cartoon Network To Launch New Version of 'ThunderCats'
"In addition to being Warner Bros. Animation's first anime series, ThunderCats marks our most ambitious foray yet into fantasy," explains Warner Bros. Sam Register. "The realism and dynamic visual style we've achieved are sure to thrill viewers, and the cool weapons, vehicles and technology should help the show appeal to a diverse audience." The story is described as "a sweeping tale combining swords and science and boasting ferocious battles with the highest of stakes, the grand origin story of Prince Lion-O's ascension to the throne – and of those who would thwart his destiny at any cost – takes on epic dimensions in this sharp new telling." "As the forces of good and evil battle each other in the quest for the fabled Stones of Power, Lion-O and his champions learn valuable lessons of loyalty, honor and mortality in every episode." Warner Bros. will be using the same Japanese studio that worked on The Animatrix, Gotham Knights and Halo Legends.
Cartoon Network is working on a new version of the beloved 1980s animated series, 'ThunderCats'.
