'Wonder Twins' Movie Planned

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Warner Bros. is activating its wonder powers with plans for a live-action adaptation of the "Wonder Twins" superheroes.

The studio optioned the rights to the characters with Gaylord Films, The Hollywood Reporter and Variety reported Thursday.

The twins, youth trainee aliens from the planet Exxor, originally appeared in the 1977 Saturday-morning cartoon series "The All-New SuperFriends Hour."

Zan had the power to change into any water-based form, while his sister, Jayna, could become any animal. They could also communicate telepathically.

The pair initiated their shape-shifting abilities by knocking hands and crying: "Wonder Twin powers, activate!"

I'll take what's behind curtain number two, even though I'd risk jail time. ;)

No. That would be the planned remake of the Billy Jack series with Keanu Reeves.

I keep searching for "The Onion" credit on the article, but can't see it yet. It must be there somewhere!
