The Knights of the Zodiac is one of the most popular animes and sleeves of the 80s. After countless sequelae, adaptations and spin-off, the original Kurumada Masami work will now reach the big screen in the future. That s right, Saint Seiya will have a movie Live Action, which is already in filming .
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Toei Animation and Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions are those responsible for the production of the film Live Action of The Knights of the Zodiac , which has begun its films in Croatia and Hungary. Tomasz Baginski , who took care of the special effects of the The Witcher series for Netflix, will be the director of this tape , with Andy Cheng, Choreographer who worked in shang-chi and the legend of the Ten Rings , in charge of the fights.
Regarding the actors involved, Arata Mackenyu, known by pacific RIM: UPRISING , will be in charge of interpreting Seiya, the protagonist . Madison Iseman, famous for Jumanji: Welcome to The Jungle , will play Sienna, a character who will play the same role of Saori in the anime. Sean Bean, whom you will recognize about the work of him in Game of Thrones , will be in charge of the role of Alman Kiddo, who will be a new interpretation of Mitsumasa Kido.
On the other hand, Famke Janssen, Nick Stahl and Diego Tinoco are also involved in this project, although their roles are still a mystery. In this case, is speculated that Tinoco could give life to Ikki , since the role of it is described as someone focused on defeating Seiya.
As for history, It seems that this will be an adaptation of the Galactic Tournament , one of the first acts of the sleeve. This is the description offered:
When a mystical energy known as cosmo awakens in it, Seiya embarks on a trip to conquer the old Greek armor of Pegasus and choose her side in a supernatural battle for the destiny of Sienna, a young woman who struggles to control her divine powers .
Without a doubt, this project sounds quite interesting. Considering the history of this type of adaptations, many people surely have doubts about the tape, but taking into account the talent, It is likely that this Live Action version of Seiya and company is not a total disaster.
