When you have a post-apocalyptic city ravaged by chaos and bring in two berserk rival biker gangs that get entangled with psychic powers and a government conspiracy, you’ve already got the kind of movie whose epicness eclipses anything 3-D glasses could do.
Katsuhiro Otomo’s cyberpunk manga series that explodes out of Neo-Tokyo at the inception of the third world war is crackling with electric imagery. since 2002-and seems to have been cryogenically frozen since then. Now we’ve found out he has been accumulating an Akira goldmine of concept art since 2014.Īkira has publicly been in development with Warner Bros. Sci-fi filmmaker Ruairí Robinson-who almost did direct such an adaptation until the making of it turned into World War III-couldn’t be more ideal for the project considering his preferred subject matter of things like urban wastelands ( The Silent City) and lunatic robots ( Blinky). As much as we want to see a live-action adaptation of Akira sometime before the apocalypse, now we can at least imagine it with this mind-blowing concept art.
