The creator of the new series has confirmed that Lion-O will be aged, just like he was in the original series.

Never thought of it. This might be an coming of age series. I would not mind if Lion-O would end up like his father in apperance, and no i dont consider this a big spoiler.
I hope it’s like this. If it turns out like the OS with the “Oh hi, you’re an adult btw all of a sudden! LOL.” I may break my nice new big flat screen TV…:lionomad:
Well, if Lion-O is going to age, I would imagine they would all age, maybe not Panthro, as he is already and adult.
But Lion-O, Tygra, Cheetara and the Kittens should either all age or not at all.
I do hope its a natural progression, but I wonder how its going to be, will there be jumps in time a year or so between seasons or story arcs? Do Thunderians age rapidly within a couple of years? I don’t see Lion-O going from where he is now age/physically to the age/size of Lion-O in the OS (I don’t mean he is going to look like OS Lion-O, was talking about physical age comparison) much less looking like Claudus anytime soon.
In other words-- He’s going to add a little height. Add some shoulders. And about six inches of mane.
Tygra will add some height and without a doubt more shoulders.
I wonder who it will fall to in this series to nag Lion-o about trying to control that wild mess? In every flash back we saw Lion-O’s mane was always wilder and much less controlled than his father’s. In the OS it was Snarf that was always cringing and eyeing the hair brush.
Whew! That’s a relief. For a while I was thinking, “Oh gods! Please don’t throw him in a suspension capsule and age him 10 years or something!” That we’ll be able to see these characters actually grow up will make this series even more awesome!

No! Not with that hairstyle he had! Gods, that was so '80s! I’m quite fond of the shorter mane, thank you very much. I hope they more or less keep it that way.
Honestly Lion-O’s 80s hairstyle was the one thing I hated about him. I don’t mind the new Lion-O growing longer hair, but please don’t make him look like a troll doll again.
