By Our Powers Combined, Captain Planet Makes a Comeback
Grab your power rings, Planeteers!
Captain Planet is coming back! And it only took the star power of Leonardo DiCaprio to bring the renowned, green-skinned environmentalist superhero back from 1990s nostalgia purgatory.
While talk of a reboot has been in the works for years, it makes sense that environmentally-minded DiCaprio would be the one to make it happen.
For those unfamiliar, Captain Planet was a popular television show that ran from 1990 to 1992 (and again in 1993 to 1996). It featured five kids from around the world, each with a power ring that could control a natural element and, when combined, would summon the superhero Captain Planet to help them battle environmental evils.
The powers included Water, Earth, Fire, Wind and, of course, Heart (awwww).
Prepare yourself for the reboot and watch the intro and outro below. Don't be afraid to sing along — everyone does!
