He launches a missile to wreck Thunderbird 5, the orbiting communications station. Bitter over having been abandoned and presumed dead by the Thunderbirds in an early rescue attempt, he has come to destroy them and take their machines to use in a daring raid on the Bank of England (renamed Bank of London, for the film) vaults. IR's arch-enemy the Hood (Sir Ben Kingsley) is seeking revenge. During the movie, Alan is grounded for spring break after he and Fermat sneak into the Thunderbird 1 silo and start the engines nearly revealing International Rescue's location. Alan is eager to join his family in their work, but his father and older brothers still see him as just their little kid brother not ready for duty.
There's also caretaker Kyrano (Bhasker Patel), cook Onaha, and their beautiful adolescent daughter, Tintin (Vanessa Hudgens), who appears edgy around Alan, which Lady Penelope observes is due to a budding romance between them. Their futuristic hardware is largely developed by genius scientist "Brains" Hackenbacker (Anthony Edwards), who lives at the International Rescue base on Tracy Island, somewhere in the Pacific, along with his son, Alan's best friend, Fermat (Soren Fulton). Jeff and his older sons ( John, Virgil, Scott, and Gordon, who, like Alan, were named after the Mercury Seven astronauts) are joined in this effort by Lady Penelope and her butler/chauffeur Parker (a man whose "checkered past" comes in handy). Jeff has formed International Rescue, and raised his sons to act as a secret, volunteer organisation which uses highly advanced technology to save lives worldwide. Fourteen-year-old Alan Tracy (Brady Corbet), who has been sent off to a distant boarding school, is the youngest of the sons of Jeff Tracy, a widower and a retired American astronaut (Bill Paxton). The film is set in spring 2010 (according to the official trailer).
