It looks like it will be picked up for release.

Quote:
According to a Japanese language news report, an un-named "major American studio" is in negotiations for distribution rights to the new Japanese live action Casshern movie, along with American re-make rights. There is a possibility that Kiriya Kazuaki, director for the Japanese film, will direct a possible American remake that utilizes his internationally famous J-pop vocalist Hikaru Utada.
That comes from http://www.lelola.net/news.shtml

So not just the the remake, but the original too. I doubt itll get a big theatrical release, but it'll go to DVD, no problemo. Bank on it.

Also check out the trailor for the live action version of the originator of cartoon violence, Devilman!

Anyone seen RETURNER? That's a great film.

Sayonara.

I don't want a ****** American remake, I want to see the original. It's cool to hear more about this movie, as I'm a Jpop fiend who has heard the title song for the movie (done by Utada, naturally). Those old 70's anime are becoming really popular for remakes these days.

I bet it'll come out on region 1 DVD and Netflix will pick it up. Booyaa for Netflix.

We need a live action Mazinger Z movie. Seriously. That was just be the ultimate. And it would complete the unholy trillogy of Go Nagi's most influential works being made into movies.

I just downloaded the soundtrack for this movie, and it is phenomenal. I really want to see this movie now.

Old news I guess. Either way, to me it screams international hit... only because I'm a huge Casshern fan from way back yonder. Buncha my fob friends had sparkles in their eyes as they saw their childhood hero grace the screen.
