Dreamworks' Live-Action Ghost In The Shell

Post by ARNie »

DreamWorks has made a deal with Snow White And The Huntsman helmer Rupert Sanders to direct Ghost In The Shell, a live-action film based on the Japanese manga futuristic police thriller that has a new script from William Wheeler. The film is being produced by Avi Arad, Ari Arad and Steven Paul. Fueled by the personal passion of Steven Spielberg, DreamWorks acquired the project several years ago with ambitious plans to shoot it in 3D.

Created by Masamune Shirow, Ghost in the Shell was first published in 1989 by Kodansha, one of the largest publishing companies in Japan. It went on to generate two additional manga editions, three anime film adaptations, an anime TV series and three videogames. DreamWorks released the second anime film.

This is one of the few anime that could work as a live action feature. Hope it's good...

Maybe this will finally motivate me to give the franchise a watch. Regardless this movie is going to make at least 10 dollars.

Hopefully they'll actually do a story worthy of Ghost In The Shell and not just make it a two hour sfx actioner.

But I'm not going to get my hopes up.
