The Hood is the main villain from the live-action Thunderbirds movie released in 2004. His real name is Trangh Belagant. Portrayed by Sir Ben Kingsley, The Hood, using a special locator slime, discovered the location of Tracy Island, and he trapped Jeff Tracy and the four eldest brothers on Thunderbird 5 with a missile attack. He subsequently proceeded to steal Thunderbird 2 and the Mole, hoping to use them in a series of bank robberies, starting with the Bank of London. He possessed powerful telekinetic abilities, although over-use of this power weakened him. His niece Tin-Tin inherited these abilities.
