Yup. Leonardo DiCaprio's live adaptation of Akira will come to theaters in 2021, exactly 2 years from now. Shooting has already begun.
Thoughts?

It will be shit, like all the others. Why do they keep making this crap?

Who cares. The original movie isn't good outside of its animation quality. If this movie is going back to the manga rather than just remaking the original movie it could be cool. I doubt it though. I'd be surprised if it ever comes out. I'm more interested in seeing what they're doing for the Gundam movie because I'm sure that'll be hilariously bad.

Whats the point in making these? They're horrible and most of the time they flop.

I only care about the soundtrack.

I don't expect anything good. Early on he mentioned it would lift a lot from the manga instead of just going with new Hollywood shit or retreading the masterfully animated but equally poor summary from the 80's, but nothing Waititi directed make me believe he can tackle this.

How many failures does Jewood needs before realizing nobody really wants anime adaptation, especially of boomer-tier anime?
