ThunderCats reboot director Adam Wingard shared that his vision for the movie will stay as accurate as possible to the classic ’80s cartoon. Based on the original ThunderCats animated series, which debuted in 1985, the franchise follows a group of humanoid alien cats, seeking to protect their planet from the villainous Mumm-Ra. The long-awaited project has been on the back burner for several years at Warner Bros., as the development of the feature film has proven tricky for the studio to get off the ground. Wingard was first attached in 2021 when he signed on to direct and co-write.
