The team that’s bringin the TMNT back to the screen have lined up Gatchaman as their next property to develop. From what I can tell, TMNT looks like it could be a lot of fun - the video and screenshots have certainly been impressive enough. The producer says that they’ll be hitting for an older demographic with Gatchaman, aiming for a PG-13 rating, pushing up against an R.

Producer Thomas Gray revealed that the company has a particular attachment to the Japanese superhero genre. “Our whole reason now too is expressed in superhero,” said Gray. “Most of the Japanese inspired ones, which our owner, Francis Kao was the one that said, ‘I don’t want to do happy talking animals anymore. I want to do what I remember as a kid growing up in Asia, that it was Gatchaman and it was Astroboy and that’s what I want to make.’ And we’ve acquired those rights.”
