Disclaimer: I could be wrong on some details. So take this with a grain of salt.
Hey everybody and welcome to another edition of Lost Films and this time I'm telling you about Agent Crush.
Part One - What was Agent Crush?
Agent Crush is a cancelled British puppet spy film that was going to be released somewhere in 2008. It has been said the movie would have been in the same vein as the 1965 series Thunderbirds by Gerry Anderson.
Part Two - The Plot
The plot is it's two hundred years into the future and crime is getting a little bizarre. Boris Goundphater("Good-farter") is a first prototype cyborg developed by the World Security Network to combat crime. The experiment failed due to a dangerous defect. Goudphater manages to survive the de-commissioning process and escapes. Horribly disfigured and angry, he is at large and out for revenge. Agent Crush is a second series cyborg, and is trying to prove himself as a secret agent. Crush has been furnished with all types of superhero gadgets but he is prone to bumbling accidents and causes havoc wherever he goes. Accompanied by his inventor sidekick, Spanners and Spanner's daughter Cassie, his latest mission is to stop Goudphater from exploding a nuclear device in the center of the Earth's magma core and causing every volcano to erupt, destroying the Earth.
Part Three - Planned Cast
Now I didn't get anything details on who was going to play what character but here's a list of some the actors.
Ioan Gruffudd
Danny Glover
Neve Campbell
Brian Cox
Brian Blessed
and
Sir Roger Moore
Part Four - Cancellation & More
The movie was cancelled for unknown reasons. A Wordpress user by the name Mikecanex supposedly had a talk with the director Sean Robinson he commented "Agent Crush was a great experience for him and has tried as hard as he could to get the film released. In that same post Clive Banks who has claimed to be an investor of Agent Crush said that the movie was poorly managed and that Sean Robinson "eventually sold the investors down the river by taking expensive loan financing rather than engaging properly with shareholders". It's hard to believe this guy mainly because his identity hasn't been confirmed. There's also other things to say about this defunct film such as it once had it's own website but it disappeared & despite us only having a trailer to the film for some weird reason the company that made the movie that being Fantastic Film International says it's complete on it's website. You can go on the site for not only the trailer but other things like behind the scenes & images .

The new segment will be titled Raiders of the Lost Media it was the best title I had in my head. The first post to this new segment will be about the cancelled video game Cartoon Network: Backlot Party.
