Although filming wrapped up in 2025, Amazon is in no hurry to premiere it.
Amazon MGM has determined the tentative release date for the "Voltron" live-action movie. According to The Wrap, the studio plans to release the film in 2027, although the exact premiere date has not yet been announced.
The project has been in development for several years, but production is already complete. Filming began in late 2024 in Australia and was completed by mid-2025. The film is currently in post-production.
"Voltron" is a live-action adaptation of the 1980s anime "Voltron: Defender of the Universe", directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber ("Red Notice").
The creators of the film have not yet revealed details, but it was previously reported that the story will begin with a tragedy. After the death of his mother, a teenager from Earth learns that she was one of the legendary Voltron pilots who defended the galaxy from the tyrant Zarkon. When the antagonist is released again, the young man has to take her place and defend the world.
The cast of the film includes Daniel Quinn-Toye, Rita Ora, Alba Baptista, Samson Kayo, Laura Gordon, Tim Griffin, and Nathan Jones. Henry Cavill will play King Altea, the father of the deceased girl and creator of the Voltron lions, and Sterling Brown will embody the image of the main antagonist.
