Will they use the "Thunderbirds are GO!" song by FuzzBox as the theme song?

(FuzzBox: Early '80's Girl band... Not early enough, however as they came in on the coat tails of The Go-Go's, The Bangles, The Tom-Tom Club, et al...
Their version of 'Spirit in the Sky' is still the best I have EVER heard...)

....what?  The '80's are OVER?....but....but....but...

Maybe they should have looked at TV's 'Mister Sterling' for one of the Tracy boys?  Either Scott or Virgil?
Compare for yourself...
JOSH BROLIN  (sorry if that's rather large...)

and here's SCOTT TRACY:


And here's VIRGIL TRACY:


YOU decide.....
