My brother is proudly a freak, and is thanks to him long time ago (1988) I watched Akira (in my opinion a manga masterpiece) a lot of times.

Now, Hollywood has announced the revival of the long in-limbo live-action adaptation of the classic manga film created and directed by Katsuhiro Otomo. Ruairi Robinson (“Fifty Percent Grey”, 2001) has been hired to direct what would ideally be a two-part movie and Leonardo DiCaprio will produce (and intends to star in ?Akira?) the film for Warner Bros.

When is the turn for Porco Rosso??
