After many years of rumors and failed attempts at making this
thing a reality, there is finally going to be a live action Kagaku
Ninjatai Gatchaman movie.
The movie is going to star Tori Matsuzaka, otherwise known as Shiba
Takeru / ShinkenRed in Samurai Sentai Shinkenger. Joining him are actors
Gou Ayano (Crows Zero 2) as Jou, Ayami Gouriki (Future Diary) as Jun,
Tatsuomi Hamada (Ultraman Zero the Movie) as Jinpei, the youngest member
of the team, and Ryouhei Suzuki (HanaKimi Ikemen Paradise) as Ryu. The
movie is expected to be released next year and will have its script
written by Yuusuke Watanabe, known for his work on Gantz, Bloody Monday,
and 20th Century Boys.
In the director’s seat is Toya Sato, behind
Grave of the Fireflies and Gokusen. It’s said that the film will employ a
great amount of CG and be handled by Takashi Yamazaki in that area.
Yamazaki is the visual effects director behind the super seuccessful
Space Battleship Yamato.
Filming begins October 15th and the movie is expected to be released sometime in 2013.
