I guess things are moving forward again slowly.

Good news until I read Chris Pratt... I'm just tired of seeing him in everything.

How are they even announcing stuff like this with the SAG/AFTRA strike in place? I mean Pratt would have had to been attached before the strike, he wouldn't sign a deal for the project during the strike, so they've been holding this info for a while, and I am not sure what their strategy is releasing it now? Sure they might get some attention because of the lull in news, but they might also give this project the kiss of death if releasing this news during the strike gives it the perception of being a scab project and not be able to get anyone to work on it after the strike is resolved.

I'm a huge Micronauts fan, and I like Pratt well enough and think he could carry a project like this to success under normal circumstances, but a major casting news about a project announced in the middle of a writers and screen actor's strike is not normal circumstances.

It hasn't been officially announced. This is just an article based on an "anonymous source".

If I had to guess... I'd say this is coming from Hasbro, trying to imply that they have their own movie-worthy IP on the way. They probably don't fully realize the implications of leaking this during the strike.
