Hello Everyone,
Evelyn here,
with news about the return of anothers old comic classic, Voltron: Defender of the Universe. 20th century Fox and New Regency Productions will be filming this classic cartoon as a 2008 release.

08.11.07 – There is another favorite comic book coming to the big screen and that is Voltron: Defender of the Universe. 20th century Fox and their New Regency production company have contracted with producer Mark Gordon to do for Voltron what DreamWorks and director Michael Bay did for their recent of the Transformers.
Some might still remember that Voltron made its original television debut in 1960 and ran until 1968. Comprised of five different lion’s heads that come together to battle with evil galactic beings, this enduring Saturday morning superhero can easily be thought of as the prototype the present day Transformers. Yet, unlike the Transformers, Voltron needs to be manned by human beings. There are five space explorers to pilot each lion head, and as a group they are called the Galaxy Alliance Pilots.
The leader of the group is Keith, who helmed the Black Lion and directed the formation of Voltron. The sassy and sometimes sarcastic Lance pilots the Red Lion. The beautiful Princess Allura pilots the Blue Lion. The tough guy of the pack is Hunk, ho pilots the Yellow Lion, and finally the Green Lion is piloted by Pidge, the remarkably agile geek of the pack. When the lions combine, they form the massive sword-wielding robot Voltron. More om this at a later date.
