The MICRONAUTS Live-Action Big Screen MOVIE (based on the MEGO and HASBRO Toys franchise and Comic Books) now has been DELAYED by the Pandemic but is Expected to DEBUT in Theatre’s in Late 2022 to Early 2023;

** Dean DeBlois (How to Train Your Dragon filmmaker) is confirmed to directing and writing Paramount the FILM for Hasbro;

J.J. ABRAMS is a Producer;

** Deadline notes;

** The Plastic Action Figure TOYS had move-able joints, (which differed from Kenner’s stiff jointed Star Wars figures), and spawned several MARVEL comic book Series and Limited Series from 1979-1986 (and Returned from 2002 to date from Image, Devil's Due and IDW);

** The Micronauts came from the small universe, Microverse, which was full of strange planets like the human-inhabited Homeworld which is made up of diverse spherical habitats that are linked together in the fashion of a molecular chain. A resistance assembles in response to the threat posed by immortal dictator Baron Karza who gains control of Homeworld through the creation of the Body Banks, where life-extending brain transplants are performed on the rich and inhuman genetic alterations on the poor.

** The project has been set-up for many years at J.J. ABRAMS' Bad Robot production company and Paramount Pictures. It is unclear if J.J. ABRAMS himself will be involved; Screenplay by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. DeBlois take is under wraps, but will focus on intergalactic explorers. Arguably, it was the toys that were always the stars here in Micronauts for anyone over 40. The IP’s mythology wasn’t as much in the public eye like G.I. Joe which had both the Marvel comic and cartoon series in the ’80s (inspired by the comics). Hence, the sky is the limit for any direction Paramount, Hasbro and DeBlois wish to take Micronauts.

** Hasbro and Paramount Pictures plans to create an interconnected MOVIE UNIVERSE that unites G.I. Joe, Micronauts, Visionaries, M.A.S.K. and ROM Space-Knight. (Paramount and Hasbro have had success with the Transformers and G.I. Joe franchises);
