Deadline reports that Universal Pictures is developing a live-action movie of the cult animated series Voltron. Reports state that they have hired David Hayer (Watchmen) to script and Tom Engelman (The Chronicles of Riddick, The Lone Ranger) to produce.

Following the initial series, Voltron was revived as in 1998 in Voltron: The Third Dimension, which ran for 26 episodes. Then in 2011 came Voltron Force, again only lasting 26 episodes. Currently, Voltron Legendary Defender is available on Netflix with a second season set to premiere January 20, 2017.
