Actually I don't know if he is Voltron or if he is just in it. I have no idea what this IP is. It looks like a transformers/power rangers hybrid.
I loved Voltron when I was a kid, I had all the toys. Haven't thought about it in years.

I didn't watch the show, but I I think I made this thread back in 2018 when it was announced that the lead in the animated series – American reboot of the original Voltron – was getting a gay love interest. So is Henry gonna go up another man in this?

Starring alongside Tom Holland ... or, rather, Tom's West End STAND-IN. Wow, talk about some major talent. 🙄 (Also, "Red Notice" was Netflix's biggest flop to date not directed by Zach Snyder.)

As a general rule, dyed-in-the-wool closet cases don't take on late-career gay roles. Jake G. did "Brokeback" at 24, but would he have done so at 44? Highly unlikely. Also, Voltron is basically a bad Transformers ripoff. Even if it has gay characters, they'll have zero sexual anything (even kissing, but definitely not fucking.
Hollywood is REALLY scraping the bottom of the barrel for IP if they're trying to revive a 40-year-old cartoon series that ran for all of 18 months. Even "The Fall Guy" underperformed – despite being both funny and starring Ryan Gosling – because no one under the age of 50 remembered the original show. (Or knew there *was* one in the first place in many cases.)

In line with what r4 said, you'd have to be in your late 40s at the youngest to remember Voltron.

The Dreamworks/Netflix reboot premiered in 2016 and had 76 episodes. Younger generations know who Voltron is, it was pretty big at the time.
Disgustingly, Netflix will remove it from its catalogue this year.

This looks like a quick and dirty paycheck cashing situation
Which makes me wonder if it’s for child support
His child has almost certainly been born, these photos are from July
I don’t think anything was announced because they are not together anymore
It would be odd for him to go all the way to Australia to collect a paycheck for a garbage children’s movie with a newborn baby at home.

Amazon under Jennifer Salke, probably the worst Hollywood executive next to Tom Rothman at Sony, is determined to buy garbage IP and make Amazon Prime franchises from them. She’s behind Masters of the Universe as well. I’m surprised she hasn’t bought Thundercats or Street Sharks.

Indeed. She received her final contractual payment 48 hours following the successful birth of their child, created via IVF.

They cast Sterling K Brown after he got an Oscar nomination?

Ask your doctor if Voltron is right for you.

The original cartoon was a classic and the Netflix update was good with cuties Josh Keaton and Jeremy Shada.
