The working title was Captain Scarlet – The New Millennium. In 1999, Anderson supervised the production of a computer-animated test film, Captain Scarlet and the Return of the Mysterons, to explore the possibility of updating some of his 1960s Supermarionation series for a 21st-century audience. The Radio Times said fans "felt the essence of the show had been pixelated away", while The Register called the series a "rehash". Anderson was unhappy with this scheduling decision, claiming the show was ignored. Instead of having its own timeslot, each episode of Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet was shown within the children's Saturday morning children TV Show, Ministry of Mayhem.
The series premiered on the British ITV network in February 2005. It was the last show produced by Gerry Anderson.
As a nod to Supermarionation, the new series' computer animation was promoted as " Hypermarionation". Both series were produced by Gerry Anderson. Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet (more commonly New Captain Scarlet or NCS) is a British computer generated action-adventure reboot of the 1967 Supermarionation series, Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons.
