Get out, and don't come back. I'm not even a huge fan of Akira (think I've got it rated 8/10 on MAL), but this really annoys me. They're whitewashing the hell outta this. I think we might see a new bar set for Hollywood rape here.

Love Keanu Reeves but not for this....forget it.

No matter who they choose for the role people are going to hate it.

I know I will. Wanna see Akira? Watch the original. It would take a whole lot for me to change my mind about this abomination.

Why are they looking for someone so much older for these characters ? Makes no sense ???

Megaton4736d ago

I know, right? In the anime they're Japanese kids/teens, not middle-aged white guys.

I don't know what they're trying to do if in fact that is what they're doing. I know a lot of younger actors that would be much better suited for this....are we sure it's not just a rumor?
