American film producer Erwin Stoff (Constantine, the Matrix, Street Kings) has revealed that he is developing a live-action movie adaptation of the classic anime series "Cowboy Bebop" for 20th Century Fox. Stoff is also a managing agent for Keanu Reeves, which explains why Reeves has been in so many of his films. Here's hoping the guy doesn't get cast as Spike or anything.
Stoff does promise to stay very faithful to the original Japanese version of the story, however. So for all those worried that this film might turn into another DragonBall movie, it appears you can relax a bit. Here's the jiff of what an article from IF magazine had to say about it:
“I’m developing COWBOY BEBOP for Fox, but doing it as a live-action film, so I’m working on that at the moment,” Stoff tells iF. “I’m really excited to be working on it, and it’s in the really early stages. We just signed it the other day.”
“I have such an enormous admiration for its creators, that our first and foremost concern is going to be a real degree of faithfulness to the tone of the movie, to the mix of genres, and so on and so forth,” he says. “When I met with them in Japan, one of the first things that I brought up was the experience that we had on A SCANNER DARKLY, and how hard we worked to remain faithful to Philip K. Dick, and that was our big concern here.”
