If you've been in the "anti" crowd with regards to the status of Hollywood's live-action adaptation of Akira, you may have reason to celebrate. Keanu Reeves has reportedly passed on playing the role of Kaneda, making him the third prospective lead (after Brad Pitt and Ryan Gosling) to drop the project.
And there's more bad news for the "pro" faction, as Warner Brothers has dissolved the "previsualization" department assigned to developing Akira as a franchise. While WB has yet to formally confirm that the film has been axed, it's still a pretty heavy blow.

Damn:) The director drops out of the project too...

Barely one week after the departure of Keanu Reeves — purportedly due to fan outcry surrounding the actor’s casting as Kaneda — today comes word that the Warner Bros’ project has also lost director Albert Hughes (The Book of Eli). Hughes may not have been a popular choice in some quarters, but his departure casts some doubt on the future of the troubled production.

Because its been drawn, we can't look?
At what age does it become unseemly to look at films that were drawn as opposed to, say, films where people put on costumes, and wear lots of make up?

Warners greenlights 'Akira'; Hedlund front-runner
http://www.variety.com/article/V…Variety reports that Warner Bros. green-lit the film. With that, everything becomes solid; including the casting. "Both Warners and Collett-Sera have been keen on [Garrett Hedlund to star], but had to wait for a greenlight to make their move," they write. So, just think on this for a moment. Hedlund, who played Sam Flynn in "Tron Legacy" as Kaneda ... er, "Kendall." I guess that means we can expect Channing Tatum to show up as Tetsuo -- I mean "Tommy."
