Voltron<\/a>, the upcoming live-action remake of the 1980s animated series, has officially wrapped production. <\/p>\n

The film’s official Instagram account<\/a> posted a message from producer Bob Koplar on Saturday (24 May) confirming that filming was over. <\/p>\n

Koplar wrote: “Our live-action Voltron film has officially wrapped production, and we\u2019re THRILLED with how it all went. <\/p>\n

“I\u2019ve been with this franchise for years and can proudly say that this WILL be the Voltron experience our fans have been dreaming of.<\/p>\n

“There’s been some chatter out there about the plans for the film’s launch and we’d like to assure you, when official plans are set for the film, you will be the first to hear it right here.<\/p>\n

The project was first announced back in October 2024 with Superman<\/a> actor Henry Cavill<\/a> cast in the lead role and Red Notice<\/a>‘s<\/a> Rawson Marshall Thurberas attached as director. <\/p>\n

Later in 2024, This Is Us<\/a> actor Sterling K Brown<\/a> and pop star Rita Ora<\/a> were added to the cast<\/a> ahead of principal photography beginning in December. <\/p>\n

Plot details for the new film have been kept tightly under wraps, though Thurber previously assured fans of the original series that they won’t be disappointed.<\/p>\n

In a video message that was shared during VoltCon last October, Thurber said: “I want to make sure that we stay true to the heart and the spirit of Voltron. <\/p>\n

“In this film, we’re going to be introducing an entirely new generation of pilots.<\/p>\n

“We’ve reimagined Voltron for the live-action world, but we’re going to stay true to those iconic elements that you love, that I love.”<\/p>\n
