This week’s edition of IGN’s Thundercats Thursday’s takes a look at the more mature take on the Thundercats mythology. IGN talks with producers Michael Jelenic and Ethan Spaulding about giving the new series a more epic feel and a darker tone.
“Because it became a cliche to take an 80’s property and make it ‘darker’ or edgier. Give the characters skateboards or something. Our take is definitely darker but we’ve put a lot more focus on the characters and the arc and because of that we might have a few more sophisticated themes going on in this. It feels more like a movie. If I had to compare it. The old show felt more like a Saturday morning animated series and this feels more like movie.”
That’s only a small sampling, They also talk about the approach for Wilykit and Wilykat, how the story is mapped out and more. We’ve mirrored the images, click the headline of the story for those. Check out the original article Here.
