Wednesday, October 10th, 2007 @ 5:56 am

The Tundercats movie is moving ahead and Jerry O’Flaherty is now attached to direct.
This is Jerry O’Flaherty first time directing a movie but this doesn’t mean that he in experienced. O’Flaherty has worked as art director on popular video games like “Command and Conquer” “Gears of War” and “Unreal Tournament 3″
His work resume is fitting since Thundercats will be a CGI film.
O’Flaherty had been looking to make the leap into movies and was considering several projects, even live action.
But the “Thundercats” story appealed to him, as well as the fact that vidgames are increasingly incorporating lavish animated sequences that mimic pics, making a toon a much easier transition.
“It feels like a natural thing for me to step into,” he said. “Games have come so far now. The last four years of my life have been about bringing the energy of filmmaking into the videogame experience.”
