One Piece fans . After all, rumors about a supposed Chinese live-action production circulated rapidly, causing a stir in the community. However, Shueisha publicly denied this information.
According to an official statement sent to ANN (Anime News Network) , the Japanese publisher denied any connection to or confirmation of the announcement previously published by the Business Wire . The alleged announcement claimed that a Chinese company was planning a live-action adaptation of Eiichiro Oda's famous manga. However, as Shueisha reiterated, none of this is true.
No further details have been revealed about the One Piece live-action adaptation
Although the rumors have caused a great stir on social media, mainly because live-action adaptations generate divided opinions, no other official information has emerged so far. Furthermore, Shueisha has not detailed whether it will take action against the false information.
However, it's important to remember that fans are already being treated to the live-action version of One Piece by Netflix , released worldwide and well-received. Therefore, the possibility of a new project coming from China seemed, from the start, somewhat unexpected.
As with other popular franchises, rumors and unverified news easily circulate online. Therefore, fans are advised to only follow reliable sources. To avoid disappointment, it's essential to verify information before sharing it.
