Variety.com reports that ADV Films will be teaming up with series producer Gainax and the digital effects company Weta Workshop, Ltd. --which created FX shots for the "Lord Of The Rings"-- to develop a live action "Neon Genesis Evangelion" feature film.
"The three main players here represent something of a 'dream-team' for a project like this one," said ADV Films President and CEO John Ledford . "Between the quality and significance of the Gainax title, Weta's industry-leading skill in the creation of special visual effects, and our expertise in the marketing and promotion of anime and anime-related content, this project is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
The "Neon Genesis Evangelion" live-action motion picture is now in the very early stages of development. We here at Futurizmo Anime will continue bring you the latest details in the development of this project, as soon as they're made available.
