The chosen episodes are classics of the Andersons’ groundbreaking Supermarionation. Trapped in the Sky sees International Rescue called to avert catastrophe when a sabotaged atomic airliner faces disaster on its maiden voyage. Meanwhile, Terror in New York City takes the action stateside, as the Tracy family must attempt a perilous rescue beneath the streets of Manhattan.
Packed with suspense, explosive model work, and the unforgettable characters that have made Thunderbirds a cultural phenomenon for six decades, this double-bill is both a nostalgic celebration and a thrilling introduction for new audiences.
Fans can relive the magic of International Rescue’s greatest missions—or discover them for the first time—when Thunderbirds soars into UK cinemas from 20th September. FAB!
