Ishinomori Film Will Be Chosen From 500 Works Date: 11/21/2005 |
It's probably most likely that the first film product from the Itochu Group / Comic Book Movie partnership will be based on one of Shotaro Ishinomori's more well known creations (ie: Cyborg 009 / Mask Rider). However, Japanese newspapers such as Sanspo and Mainichi are reporting that the entire manga library of the author, consisting of 500 works will be examined for a suitable adaptaion candidate work. His media library is now maintained by Ishimori Entertainment who is going to help in the process. Assuming one can be found and agreed upon in time, filming is scheduled to start in 2006. |
