Dude...what the hell. Live action Akira? And DeCaprio as Canada?! Man I don't know. I really hope they don't mess up this classic

It says he's just producing, so maybe he won't make it suck too much.

I would love to see more of the comic book story in the movie. I was always kinda sad that the movie ended when it did.

Unfortunatly the article doesn't tell the whole story. G4 TV anounced it the other day and yes, he will be playing Canada...SUCK! And it won't be in neo Tokyo, it will be in Neo Manhaten.

ok... thus does make me sad.. i had heard of it from my brother but doubted. I was also confused on who Kaneda was and mistook him for Tetsuo, thinking.. "yeah.. Little jackass who comes into alot of power and whatnot and becomes a total prick.. Thats decaprio.
