“Gatchaman,” scheduled for release on April 3, 2009, originated in Japan in the early 1970s as the television series “Science Ninja Team Gatchaman.” Aired in the U.S. as “Battle of the Planets” and “G-Force,” it soon became a widely popular syndicated TV series.
Featuring some of the most ambitious action sequences ever seen in animation, “Gatchaman” is set in a future world grappling with environmental and technological issues.
The story focuses on five reluctant heroes whose remarkable genetic code makes them Earth’s only hope of defeating extra-terrestrial invaders.
