Jun 15, 2021 · Anderson Entertainment, the company founded by Gerry Anderson – the man behind such iconic shows as Thunderbirds and Space:1999 as well as modern hits like Space Precinct and the 2005 reimagining of Captain Scarlet – has announced its entry into the direct-to-consumer publishing business.
- Overview
- Productions
Anderson Entertainment Ltd. is an entertainment production and publishing company, currently led by managing director Jamie Anderson and his mother Mary Anderson.
Founded in early March 1999 as The Dog Inn (Ludham) Limited, the company appeared to start out providing music and other entertainment to restaurants and night clubs. Only weeks later in mid-March, Mary and Gerry Anderson were appointed as directors and the company was renamed Anderson Entertainment Limited. Also appointed at the same time was television producer John Needham. Needham and Anderson collaborated on Storm Force in 2001, an idea that would be sold to a Japanese production company as Firestorm, and eventually emerged as an anime series in 2003. Needham would leave the company at the beginning of that year.
While having earlier experimented with remaking Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons in CGI by the means of a test film produced around the turn of the century, it would not be until Anderson Entertainment was approached by Granada that it got off the ground as New Captain Scarlet. The series, which pioneered the use of motion-capture technology, went to air in 2005, and lasted for 26 episodes.
Following New Captain Scarlet, Anderson expressed interest in giving the same treatment to Thunderbirds, although formal permission from rights-holders ITV (then Carlton/Granada) never materialised. While not much is known about what the reboot would have contained, it is known that there were plans to turn at least two of the Tracy brothers into Tracy sisters. ITV's refusal to grant the rights was probably due to the studio having their own version in the works (see Thunderbirds: IR), which would eventually emerge as Thunderbirds Are Go! in 2015.
Following Gerry Anderson's death in 2012, his son Jamie Anderson took over as director in March 2013. His initial aim for the company was to develop "legacy projects", namely uncompleted projects from the senior Anderson's back-catalogue. This included Gemini Force One, a trilogy of novels, and reworking Firestorm as a puppet series.
Anderson Entertainment received thanks on 2015's Thunderbirds: The Vault for the provision of additional images.
