Press Release from Warner Home Video

BURBANK, CA - Join Lion-O, Panthro, Cheetara and more as Warner Home Video releases ThunderCats: Season 1, Book 1 on DVD October 18, 2011. The two-disc set features the first eight action-packed episodes of the new anime-inspired feline fantasy from Warner Bros. Animation, based on the 1980s animated classic. The DVD set is priced to own at $19.97 SRP.

ThunderCats presents the grand origin story of Prince Lion-O's ascension to the throne — and those who would thwart his destiny at any cost — and takes on epic dimensions in this sharp new telling. As the forces of good and evil battle each other in the quest for the fabled Stones of Power, Lion-O and his champions learn valuable lessons of loyalty, honor and mortality in every episode. The 21st century reimagining marks a creative collaboration between Warner Bros. Animation and Studio4°C, one of the most vibrant animation studios in Japan, giving the original characters a new cutting-edge look while remaining true to the compelling storylines and mythology of the series.

Starring Will Friedle, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Madeleine Hall, Satomi Kohrogi, Matthew Mercer, Eamon Pirruccello, Kevin Michael Richardson, Dee Bradley Baker, Clancy Brown, Corey Burton, Robin Atkins Down and Larry Kenney, ThunderCats is executive produced by Sam Register with Michael Jelenic and Ethan Spaulding producing.

“The new ThunderCats series appeals to viewers who have loved the characters all their lives as well as young newcomers to the franchise, and we are very excited to release the first installment of the first anime ThunderCats series on DVD,” said Rosemary Markson, WHV Vice President, TV and Special Interest Marketing. “One of the 1980s’ most popular animated series with a 21st century twist -  ThunderCats: Season 1, Book 1, is a must own for every generation's DVD library."

The all-new anime ThunderCats series airs Fridays 8:30/7:30c on Cartoon Network.
