Earth! Wind! Etc..... Live Action Captain Planet movie is coming, made by Transformers producer

Cartoon Network has signed a development agreement with action-adventure producer Don Murphy and partner Susan Montford and their company Angry Filmworks to develop a live-action motion picture based on the groundbreaking, environment-saving animated hero, Captain Planet and the Planeteers, it was announced today by Stuart Snyder, president and COO of Turner Broadcasting System Inc.’s Animation, Young Adults and Kids Media division (AYAKM). The agreement gives Murphy and his company the exclusive rights to develop and package the property and advance it towards production.


Murphy and Angry Filmworks are most notably credited for the highly successful action-adventure franchise, Transformers (2007), Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009) and Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011). Murphy and Montford together produced the upcoming Hugh Jackman blockbuster Real Steel with Executive Producer Steven Spielberg. The company also is responsible for such action-oriented films as Shoot ‘Em Up (2007), The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003), Apt Pupil (199Cool and Natural Born Killers (1994). Angry Filmworks formed in 1998.


“The messages of Captain Planet are even more relevant today,” said Snyder. “We feel this team can bring the world’s first eco-hero to life in a powerful motion picture that is not only pertinent but entertaining.”


“We are extremely excited about bringing the good Captain back to life,” said Murphy. “His adventures are known worldwide and he is recognized across generations. We expect to make a spectacular series of films with the amazing team at Cartoon Network.”


“With the earthquakes, tornadoes, melting icebergs and all the other problems threatening the world right now, Earth really needs her greatest defender,” said Montford.


In an effort to inform younger viewers about serious environmental issues, legendary cable entrepreneur Ted Turner partnered with DIC Enterprises in 1990 to create the world’s first animated environmental series, Captain Planet and the Planeteers. The series was about a group of young people who combine their special powers (The Planeteers) to summon Captain Planet, an environmental superhero, to battle the world’s worst eco-villains.


Captain Planet and the Planeteers premiered in fall 1990, airing domestically and internationally in syndication and on cable networks TBS and TNT. Six full seasons of the series were produced in the original run of the series, featuring the voice talents of multiple guest celebrities, including Whoopi Goldberg (Gaia), Meg Ryan (Dr. Blight), Martin Sheen (Sly Sludge), Edward Asner (Hoggish Greedly), James Coburn (Looten Plunder), Dean Stockwell (Duke Nukem) and Sting (Zarm). Winning multiple Environmental Media Awards across its production, Captain Planet and the Planeteers also scored several Daytime Emmy nominations.

I came to post this. It literally becomes Mirror's Edge half way through, with the same graphics too. Wow they need to work on those effects.

What the hell? Those graphics are horrible for a movie, the arms looked so fake. Keep videogame 1st person stuff out of TV and films please, it sucks.

AICN Knocked Out By CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER!

"It equals THE INCREDIBLES and SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE in sheer filmic joy" or "CAPTAIN AMERICA is the RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK of superhero movies." Again, take them how you like. I'm confident I'll feel the same way in the morning.

Great stuff thanks. The animation is really high quality for a western TV series. The only thing I don't like is the more modern cities being mashed up with the old asian buildings.

I saw Captain America a few nights ago, and thought it was the best super hero movie I've seen this summer. I had a handful of small complaints, but this was good movie overall that didn't have to overly rely on so many special effects like the rest of them did. The Raiders comparisons are pretty valid in fact. The only real complaint is that Steve Rogers is a little too much of a boy scout. That's how he's usually portrayed, and most writers have a tough time balancing that out with a few character flaws that help make him relatable. Anyway it's not excellent, but it is totally worth seeing.
