I’ll bet $1m right now that he will turn into a black panther!
(If you don’t get that joke you’re probably wondering what the Smeg a Manimal
is anyway!) One of the bet bad TV shows from the 1980s, Manimal lasted a mighty
8 episodes before getting cancelled. Even so I’m sure Manimal, as played by Simon
McCorkindale, must have curled his fingers and very, very, verrry slowly turned himself
into a Black Panther at least 80 times! Apparently he was able to turn himself
into numerous, possibly all, animals as he adventured and fought crime on a
weekly basis.
Sony hope t turn this into a live action and CGI movie, like the Smurfs but, er, not. I
imagine this will allow for them to have him be more than a big Cat a hawk and a Dolphin this time. My hope
is that they go all Marvel Studios and have Manimal and Automan form a classic
1980s crime fighting team alongside StreetHawk! It is very early days yet as Sony have merely secured the rights and are yet to find writers for the film.
