    If it’s not Don Cheadle playing the titular Captain - I’m not interested.

        The wig isn’t the problem. It’s the blue face paint:

          I was apparently OOTL the Cheadle was involved with Captain Planet at all. I thought they were just throwing a name out there xD and I happen to like Cheadle a lot as an actor.

            Cheadle played him previously in Web shorts. Someone compiled them into one video, less than 20 minutes. Absolutely hilarious.

    It will be just a series about this dude on life support & discussing humane euthanasia.

    Just because something exists, is not a good reason to reboot it.

    This is going to be hot garbage and Captain Planet will be promoting pro corporate propaganda

      Yes, this!

      They will literally make up a villain, the only fictional part the series doesn’t need.

    I keep trying to figire out how to make this show modern and relevant. I can only see it as a naive 90s world. I will watch it. I just hope it doesn’t suck.

    Dear netflix:

    Hi. I’m 41 years old, which means I was about 10 years old during the original run. Therefore I was the target audience. Just came by to tell you, that Captain Planet has always sucked. The ONLY reason it had any ratings is because it had a 4pm timeslot, on weekdays, and Fresh Prince of Belair reruns didn’t air until 5pm.

    Seriously, nobody liked that show. It may legitimately be the first case of hate watching.

    ~Sincerely, some guy.
