Who doesn’t know the cult manga Ghost in the Shell? I hope nobody. Variety says, animation company Production I.G. has acquired rights from publisher Kodansha to sell the antimated Ghost in the Shell for a live-action remake.
Kodansha published the Ghost in the Shell manga by Masamune Shirow in 1989. Production I.G. then made it into a cult hit animated feature in 1995.
It’s hard to comment on the announcement. Because Ghost in the Shell was great as manga and I can’t imagine a live-action yet.
