Voice Actor Larry Kenney has been announced as the voice of Claudus in the upcoming 2011 ThunderCats Animation Series. Voice Actor Larry Kenney is best know for his role as Lion-O in the original 80's ThunderCats cartoon series.
***************Spoiler Alert************** Claudus is the father of both Lion-O and Tygra making these two famous ThunderCats Brothers in the new Cartoon Network Animation Series set to air in 2011. |
Nice. Good that they are keeping connection to the old series. RE: New series, anything goes so long as it doesn't suck. Bring it!
|
Interesting twist to say the least. I wonder if they are setting up a rivalry for the throne.
|
very interesting. looking forward to this new series .. just hope they don't messed it up

Sounds interesting.
|
hold on a sec... a lion and a tiger?! brothers?!
|
Very...very...cool.
|
Wonder if they're half-brothers? Interesting plot point, glad they're not sticking slavishly to the original storyline.
|
So does this mean that Tygra is going to be a liger? Claudus being a mail lion and Tygra's mother being a female tiger, assuming that's the case...or is Tygra adopted? He looks like a tiger, not a liger, but if Claudus is his father he should be a hybrid, which his design DOES NOT reflect.
I hope this is explained in the cartoon and not glossed over. Edit: Quote:

then.. tygra's new name will be...... LYGRA? :D
|
A tilon? Really? That's a new one to me. Well, it doesn't have to be a split down the center physically. Sometimes one side is more dominant. I'd rather no ThunderCat tilons. At least for the first season or so.

EDIT: Personally, I think the writers screwed up on this one by making Lion-O and Tygra siblings given the fact they their designs are based on earthly cats. They can of course take the cheap way out and say they're aliens, but the fact that they're designed from animals we know (with little differences) will always raise questions in the viewers eyes—posts above already have people saying "what?" Adopted brother would have been a better way to go, in my opinion. |

I don't think they mentioned that or will. :) But no, he raised them both, but genetically, he's only Lion-O's father. But if they are a civilization of felines, they know the way of things for centuries and this wouldn't be shocking for them. Its the way of cats.

1) The pic of the "tilon" is clearly a Photoshop job and a bad one at that!
2) I looked up word "tilon" and it isn't the offspring of male tiger bred with a female lion actually. Those abominations are actually called "tigons" |

And thanks for the name correction, too. |
...what?? This is crazy! As long as its written well I'll be ok with it.
|
I'm very glad to hear Larry Kenny is returning! :D His portrayal for Lion-O was a great performance, and, I've heard that he's a great person too! I'll be looking forward to hearing his voice again in the new series. :)
|
Good to hear about Kenny. I hope they can get more of the voice talent back for more cameos at least, if not lead roles.
