Guillermo del Toro Joins CHAMPIONS!! It's Not A Sports Movie!!


Merrick here...


Guillermo del Toro will write/produce/direct CHAMPIONS for United Artists. "Champions" sounds like a breakfast cereal to me.





I like that theme music; hope they use it in the movie.

Based on the 1968-69 British TV series, "Champions" will follow the adventures of a team of secret government agents who are rescued from a plane crash by an advanced civilization and given superhuman abilities.

...says THIS ARTICLE IN VARIETY.

Here's a whol episode of the original series:
