The universe’s greatest protector will rise again in DreamWorks Animation’s all-new series Voltron Legendary Defender, premiering June 10 exclusively on Netflix. This rebirth of a fan-favorite science fiction franchise will launch with an hour-long original story, “The Rise of Voltron,” with 10 episodes to follow.
Though it is instantly recognizable to classic Voltron fans, Executive Producer Joaquim Dos Santos and Co-Executive Producer Lauren Montgomery (The Legend of Korra, Avatar: The Last Airbender) have re-engineered core elements of the original show using all of the twenty-first-century technology and storytelling innovation at their disposal. With a killer mix of old and new animation techniques, creative transformations of the characters and designs and inventive plot expansions, DreamWorks Voltron Legendary Defender honors the show’s venerated history while amplifying its strengths and scope tenfold.
