"In a surprise revelation, Hollywood industry newswire Deadline is reporting that author Akihito Tsukushi's Made In Abyss manga is getting the Hollywood film treatment with a live-action film under active development at film studio Columbia Pictures.

As is becoming more common with such developments and productions, Masi Oka (from the TV series Heroes) is attached to the project along with producer Roy Lee under his Vertigo Entertainment production house and writer/director Kevin Mc Mullin handling the adaptation. Made in Abyss has inspired a TV anime along with an animated feature film series.

A second season of the TV anime is currently in production for release in 2022 along with a tie in video game also being released in the same year. Seven Seas Entertainment currently publishes the manga in the US and describes the manga:

In an age when the corners of the world have been scoured for their secrets, only one place remains unexplored–a massive cave system known as the Abyss, filled with monstrous creatures and lost relics. Those who delve into its depths are known as Cave Raiders. A young orphan named Riko dreams of following in her mother’s footsteps as a Cave Raider, and when she meets a strange robot while exploring the Abyss, she is one perilous step closer to achieving her goal!"

It'll never come out. Death Note was the only one that ever came out.

Well, if it does come out, it will surely be the worst thing in existence. Thanks again, Hollywood. As always...

Will be absolute SHIT. All the darkest elements that make the MiB a horrible dystopian nightmare will be taken out because Censorship. Monster eating a kid in order to use his voice to lure others to their death? Gone. Everything that makes Bondrewd, Bondrewd? Also Gone.

Since it has kids, they'll probably turn them into teenagers played by 20-year old models and make it another Hunger Games Clone. Bondrewd will be the typical "Im Evil Cuz Im Evil" villain that wants to take over the world or something else stupid.
Wow, Really? That's Amazingly Stupid! Too bad you've been ignored, I might have actually read that and laughed at you again.

Well, unless this gets a lord of the rings level of big budget, it's not going to be good.

honestly I'm kind of excited for it, because I'm thinking this can probably be in the so bad it's good level of bad.

I just can't see it being "decent" or "average"

Of course it is the Hollywood making a live action adaptation of a story involving underage children.

Is Disney perhaps involved as well in this project ?

So...are they gonna keep in all the rather questionable scenes? Can't wait for live action diarrhea.

Announcing an adaptation does not guarantee it will be made there is a good chance it will be cancelled in the production state like the many other announced live action adaptations.


I hope this is one of them cause I do not want to see a favorite of mine getting ruined by Hollywood.
