Warner Bros. Animation, Hanna-Barbera Europe Developing Animated Series ‘Hit Squad,’ Based on the Work of ‘Thunderbirds’ Creator Gerry Anderson (EXCLUSIVE)
WBA and Hanna-Barbera Europe are developing 'Hit Squad,' an adult puppet espionage-comedy inspired by Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation legacy.
Set in 1990s London, the series follows an international team of talented spies hellbent on putting death before dishonour as they battle the murky world of hidden foes and dangerous villains. His most iconic creation, 1965’s “Thunderbirds,” combined futuristic storytelling with intricate models and was an enduring hit in the U.K. and abroad, often referenced, spoofed and honored by other artists in the decades since. With expanding global reach and strategic partnerships, the company is blending classic appeal with modern innovation to revitalize one of Britain’s most iconic entertainment brands.
