In late February 2010,
we were the first fan or news site to secure a
copy of the movie script for
the (currently) on hold development of the ThunderCats movie. We
purchased this script from an online auction for a few dollars and
believed it to be authentic by the quality of the writing and the
professional layout.
Since
posting the script and our summary here a number of news outlets
carried the story and we've seen a big surge in interest in this story.
Over at
screenrant.com
it was suggested that the movie may still be in development as one of
their sources claimed that a second version of the script was turned in
by writer Paul Sopocy.
Our own sources have indicated that this version of the script would
have been an early draft before the full creative team was brought on
board.
We decided to voluntarily remove the script at WB's request but if you
haven't had a chance to read it yet, we've included a few of the
highlights below and if you search hard enough online you're likely to
find a copy somewhere as this copy has apparently been quietly floating
about for about three years already.
