Due to the latest news, the live-action Akira has been postponed again, which everything indicates is due to the production of Marvel .
Director Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok) was in the process of casting Japanese actors for the two lead roles, and the studio originally delayed the project to allow time for the casting process. However, Variety revealed that there may be "creative disagreements."
Since The Hollywood Reporter said that Taika Waititi will direct Marvel's Thor 4 and that the schedules of the two films became incompatible.
Both Thor 4 and Akira's production dates were "close" and Warner Bros. hopes to keep Taika Waititi as director of the live-action film after he finishes his work on Thor 4.
Remembering that the work will have a 4K remastering of the 1988 film and an anime series in production.
