Warner Brothers have confirmed that they are in fact going to move forward with the live action version of the classic Jonny Quest cartoon.
The director Chris McKay is most known for his work on The LEGO Batman Movie.
Many have brought up the challenges of rebooting the Hanna-Barbera cartoon created by Doug Wildey in the mid-1960s.
The character Hadji does not transfer well to modern times, but we are sure that talented enough writers can turn this to a positive, right?

Although we reported of the tragic passing of Marvel comics legend and icon Stan lee just hours ago, we thought that a full tribute was required in this situation.
Stan Lee joined Timely Comics the same year it started in 1939.
Although shocking to think about now, he started at the company as a gopher boy and assistant.
In 1941, at 19 years old, Stan Lee was made into interim editor.
He had a major part in the creation of characters as legendary as Spider-Man, the Hulk, Doctor Strange, the Fantastic Four, Daredevil, Black Panther, the X-Men, Ant-Man, Iron Man, and Thor.
But his first superhero co-creation was the Destroyer, in Mystic Comics #6 in August of 1941.
This legend was also a Veteran. He joined the United States Army in early 1942.
He joked that his military classification was "playwright."
He returned after his World War II military service in 1945.
In the 1950's Lee ended up writing romance, Westerns, humor, science fiction, medieval adventure, horror and suspense.
He became so tired of this that he almost quit entirely, but then publisher Martin Goodman assigned Lee to come up with a new superhero team.
His wife thankfully encouraged him to be selfish and stick to the stories that excited him since he was about to quit anyways and had nothing to lose.
It was when he started giving his superheroes a flawed humanity that everything changed and Marvel was truly born.
In 1961 Timely Comics evolved into Marvel where Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, and Jack Kirby made the company what it is today.
Thankfully he lived to see his creations evolve into a multi-billion dollar movie franchise that will be enjoyed by fans for decades to come.
His cameos in these movies help cement his legacy and ensure he will inspire many creators for years to come.
On July 6th of 2017, his wife, anchor, defender, and support system sadly passed away.
From that day to the day he left us, his life came apart, and many say he was never really happy after that.
Today we celebrate all the joy he gave to so many, will continue to give to generations to come, and hope that he is with Joan in the afterlife, and smiling once again.
We will all miss you greatly Stan Lee. Thank you for all you gave to us.
I think the most proper thing we can reply with in the comments is the only word that can describe the man.
So in the comments let's all respond with simply "Excelsior!"
