Very important information has just come out this week, which is that the production of the highly anticipated Live Action Shingeki no Kyojin ( Attack on Titan ) revealed that actor Haruma Miura (Kimi ni Todoke) has been cast as the protagonist of the film as the character Eren Jäger .
Sources indicate that the actor is preparing for the start of recording, which will take place in the summer, on the island of Hashima in Nagasaki, the ideal setting for the new adaptation.
It was also announced that illustrator Yoshiyuki Sadamoto (Summer Wars), Takayuki Takeya, and Kouji Tajima (Garo, Captain Harlock) will be responsible for designing the characters. Tajima was responsible for creating a poster last year.
The special effects will be by Katsuro Onoue (Uchū Kyōda), and Shoji Ehara will direct photography. The team is completed by Takashi Sugimoto (Kita no Canaria), in lighting; Tsuyoshi Shimizu (Godzilla, live-action video Girl Ai), as art director; Isao Tsuge (Cutie Honey, Gegege no Kitarō), for makeup; and Shinichi Miter, the costumes. The live action is directed by Shinji Higuchi and the script is by Yuusuke Watanabe (Gantz, 20th Century Boys) and Tomohiro Machiyama.
Shingeki no Kyojin live action will hit theaters in 2015.
