The 1980s animated television shows 'Thundercats' and 'He-man' will leap on to the big screen under the direction of Warner Bros., entertainment magazine Variety said on Wednesday.
Real actors will star as the half-cat-half-human superheroes battling the evil Mumm-Ra mummy who lives in a sarcophagus. The television series put out some 130 episodes of 'Thundercats' in 1985 and 1986.
The announcement follows Warner Bros.' recent decision to also make a movie out of the 1980s cartoon series 'He-Man and the Masters of the Universe'.
