Voltron season 6 release date tv#

In the 80's TV series, Voltron: Defender Of The Universe featured an episode where Haggar tried to trap Princess Allura by creating a vision of a white lion. 'So we knew after we had hit the pillars of what everyone remembered from the original show, that it was kind of an open book in terms of being able to take over and rewrite some of the history and build more lore than was there previously.'

'We got lucky, because the original show had kind of a murky sort of lore and history to it,' said Dos Santos. The writing team will 'interject jokes in what are otherwise very dramatic moments, just to kind of bring some levity,' but sometimes an 'executive review' will tell them that they need to lighten up the story a bit more. 'We don't try to shoehorn in things that don't fit.'Дos Santos says the team has a 'weird theory of checks and balances internally' that prevents the heavy drama from becoming too overwhelming. 'We see how many episodes we have to do it in and then we look for, as far as our characters are concerned, what character moments actually kind of fit into that story,' Montgomery said. Season 3 ended in more of an information drop, while Voltron Season 5 had Haggar intending to travel to Oriande to confront her son Prince Lotor and the Paladins.Д«esides finding a natural breaking point for the story, it's also a 'balancing act' to ensure that characters progress naturally and receive enough screen time. Serialized TV stories usually try to end on some sort of cliffhanger, but that was difficult to do when the seasons were not planned out that way.

Warning: The following has spoilers for Voltron Season 5. 'We did try to find the most natural place to split them up but it wasn't our intention going in initially.' 'So all these shorter drops are coming in what were previously longer form seasons and split up after the fact,' Dos Santos explained, according to Screen Rant. Apparently, the stories for Voltron Seasons 3 through 6 were written way ahead of episode production, so they had to 'find decent places to split them up' because they went into production not expecting these episodes to be split up. In a 2018 interview, Dos Santos explained how this decision changed their approach to storytelling. 'It's in smaller doses, but you'll see it more.' 'The idea is to get you more Voltron more often,' Montgomery explained.

Last year, co-executive producer Lauren Montgomery and Studio Mir director Joaquim Dos Santos talked about how the decision to break up the standard 13-episode blocks came from executive level meetings at Dreamworks. What's more, the producers at Studio Mir have been teasing fans about the White Lion and what to expect from Keith, Shiro, Lotor, and more! The premiere date for the sixth season of Netflix's Voltron TV show is scheduled for June 15, 2018, so it seems streaming audiences probably won't have to wait until 2019 to watch the seventh season's new Voltron episodes. The wait for the Voltron: Legendary Defender Season 7 release date will only be about nine to 12 million ticks after June of 2018 if Netflix continues releasing episodes at the same pace.
