Akira

Further to yesterday's news that a live action Akira movie is on the way, sources are today reporting that the lead character, Kaneda, will be played by Leonardo Di Caprio.

Di Caprio is picky with his projects, and this casting certainly suggests that the studio has it's weight behind the film, however Di Caprio is considerably older than the character in the original film / comics.
