Thundercats Director are Go!

Variety has reported that Gears of War (multi-million selling Xbox 360 game) art director Jerry O’Flaherty will helm “Thundercats,” a CG-animated movie based on the ’80s cartoon series. This will be his first feature directing job.

“It feels like a natural thing for me to step into,” he said. “Games have come so far now. The last four years of my life have been about bringing the energy of filmmaking into the videogame experience.”
