Ghost in the Shell


Steven Spielberg has acquired the live action rights to popular Japanese anime film Ghost in the Shell, with plans to make the film in digital 3D. The original films story is almost impenetrable, and deals with complex philosophical questions about what it means to be human. It will be interesting to see whether the adaptation deals with these films, or goes down the more straightforward sci fi thriller route. The anime certainly features several action sequences that would look spectacular in live action 3D.

Jamie Moss, responsible for the recent Street Kings, will be handling the adaptation.
