Per Deadline, Dante Harper (the first Edge of Tomorrow scribe who recently did a draft on Vin Diesel vehicle The Last Witch Hunter) is currently working with Warner Bros., Appian Way, Mad Chance, and director Jaume Collet-Serra on Akira.
There’s nothing more than that to go on, but something is better than the nothing we’ve had since this past February, when Collet-Serra provided an update. And Harper seems like a good choice considering his experience adapting All You Need Is Kill, the manga by Hiroshi Sakurazaka that became Edge of Tomorrow, a film that this writer feels didn’t garner near the attention it deserved. (There’s always home video.)
We’ll keep you posted on updates, and with Comic-Con looming, it could well be sooner rather than later.
