So there's apparently a rumor going around that the Voltron movie will not use the names of the dub characters synonymous with the Paladins from Voltron Legendary Defender and will instead have a team of new brave space explorers and presumably a new princess.
And...I kind of get it. VLD left nothing but bad feelings and unsuccessful everything else. Bad ratings, bad merchandise sales, and bad optics. And what better way to put the focus back on Voltron the super robot and off of the weirdos going "KICK KICK KICK" than to not have a Keith or a Lance, but instead have, I dunno, a team composed of four guys named Hyouma, Juzo, Daisaku, Kousuke, and a princess named Fala. That way, you immediately kill the people demanding certain pairings.
Keep in mind that's a rumor, but one that seems to have been traced to the VoltCon 2023 panel (where producer and head of WEP Bob Koplar keeps court over the franchise). After all, the easiest way to put out a fire is to deprive it of oxygen, and a lack of Keith and Lance would do that. You can't ship Klance if Keith and Lance aren't there.

so did anyone else see that amazon ordered the voltron live action remake or was that just me. cause i have THOUGHTS about that.
posted to voltronofficial insta:
i think that live action reproductions of animation remove from the experience, since the effects likely won’t be marvel quality & therefore will look cheesy. animation just works so much better for the complicated voltron world imo. lmk yalls thoughts 😭💔

Will I be there on opening day, yes… yes I will. Will I be hoping for Klance yeah but if it’s based on the og series then my slim chances are basically none. Hope it will be sick though but most live actions are not…

Well it’s official. Rawson Marshall Thurber’s big budget adaptation of Voltron is going to be filming officially. The live-action movie will film through the fall courtesy of Amazon MGM studios. However, we have no word on the cast, and the internet will explode will that gets released.
