Thomas Brodie-Sangster's New Animated Series 'Thunderbirds' Gets Second Season Ahead of Premiere

Thomas Brodie-Sangster is heading back into the recording booth for not just one, but two animated characters on Thunderbirds Are Go!

The 24-year-old actor, who starred as Newt in The Maze Runner and also voices Ferb of Phineas and Ferb, will be lending his voice to both Gordon and John Tracy in the ITV series.

Thunderbirds Are Go! centers on the Tracy family, who operate the humanitarian defence agency International Rescue. Piloting a variety of specialised high-tech vehicles launched from a secret island base and with a satellite in geostationary orbit, brothers Scott, Virgil, Gordon, John and Alan save lives on a global scale. With the aid of their London field agent Lady Penelope and her driver Parker, the organisation also battles arch-nemesis, The Hood.

The ITV network has just announced that 26 more half-hour episodes of yet-to-premiere animated show have been ordered and will air on CITV channel over 2016 and 2017. The first episode is set to premiere this coming Spring.

Gone Girl‘s Rosamund Pike, and original cast member David Graham also star in the series.
