According to Oricon News, a live action movie of Kuroshitsuji was announced to be premiered this year. Mizushima Hiro (official website) will play Sebastian. Anime director Sato Keiichi will co-direct the movie with Otani Kentaro (live action movie of "NANA"). The story is an original, which takes place 130 years after the episodes of the manga.

Gotta say... this scares me. It'll be hard to get the right feeling of Sebastian but Mizushima Hiro isn't that bad so hopefully it'll turn out ok... But I rly doubt it xD

Why didn't they keep Yuya? :< He was a great Sebastian in the musicals~

"Reportedly, this movie adaptation will be set in 130 years later from the manga and follow a completely original story"

Oh.

I guess at least like this they don't have too much risk of messing up the story lol! I'm reeeeaaally not sure about this though. It'll quite possibly suck big time hahaha but I might check it out. Let's be hopeful for something cool.

So...no Ciel, in other words, if it's taking place 130 years in the future? Such a pity, since his rapport with Sebastian was what made the show so good.

Hiro Mizushima is one of my favorite Japanese actors, so I'll definitely watch the movie! I just hope they don't overdo the special effects or make it too corny.

This is his comeback. (Just read the article for it.)

So no Ciel. Just Sebastian, 130 years later?

WAIT. 1888 + 130 = 2018.

The future?? o_o

Can't imagine Sebastian in 3D? Haven't seen the musical then.

Hiro Mizushima is always the natural choice for a butler role :-)
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

So, why is it that it's OK for V for Vendetta, Walking Dead, any superhero comic or the VERY cartoony Scott Pilgrim to get a live-action adaptation, but when it's a manga, people cry foul? Is there some sort of rule that Japanese comics are supposed to be animation and western ones are supposed to be live-action?
