article from animenewsservice:
Osamu Tezuka's 1967 Dororo manga will be adapted as a live action film. Kou Shibasaki and Shibasa Hao will star. Shioda Akihiko will direct the project, simply known as Dororo at this point. A scheduled theatrical opening is planned for 2007 in Toho-affiliated theaters.
Filming will be done on location in New Zealand and about 2 billion yen is being poured into production. The original manga debuted in Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday in 1967; a 26-episode animated TV series followed, produced by Mushi Pro in 1969; a Playstation 2 game was developed in 2003.
Director Akihiko Shioda, in the past, received glowing reviews for his work on Gekkou No Sasayaki, which is based on the comic book by Masahiko Kikuni. The story deals with a samurai who must make a pact with the devil to become a king. In exchange for the devil's help, he offers his own son's life, a boy born with the features of a worm. The child is adopted by a craftsman who reconstructs his eyes and other missing bodyparts in wood. Dororo becomes a skillful fighter and is forced to confront many enemies while reclaiming his 48 missing bodyparts.
Legendary Hong Kong action choreographer Tony Ching Siu-tung (House of Flying Daggers, Hero) will create the fight scenes.
