We all remember Thundercats. Even those too young to remember it remember it. Well, Warner Bros. Animation have announced that they’ve started production on a new ThunderCats animated series for Cartoon Network. HOOO!

Slash Film report that this 21st century reimagining of the iconic ’80s ‘toon will see the ThunderCats characters getting a new cutting-edge look. Hopefully, that means it’ll be a bit darker and more gothic.

If the teaser image (which you can see on the right – click on it so it goes all big) is anything to go by, it looks like it’ll be a bit more moody than the primary coloured original. If Lion-O looks that mean, we can only imagine how cool Mumm-Ra is going to be!

All the main heads will be present, with Lion-O and Mumm-Ra joined by Panthro, Cheetara, Tygra.

Apparently, this new one will be a 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.

Alas, the show has to get close to this brilliant fan-made trailer for an imagined Thundercats film…
