Naruto is one of the major references in anime and manga. The work of Masashi Kishimoto has impacted generations of fans, who are now eagerly awaiting a new film adaptation. In case you don’t remember, the popular franchise will have a live-action movie that already has a director, screenwriter, and other key creatives.
Tasha Huo, who is in charge of the screenplay, recently shared exciting news for all fans of Naruto and company. She also praised the work of Destin Daniel Cretton, expressing confidence that the director is up to the task and will do a great job with the franchise.
Live-action Naruto movie already has a screenplay
During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Huo revealed that the screenplay for the live-action Naruto movie is already complete. This marks a significant step forward in the production, which has faced various obstacles and challenges in its development.
Huo also highlighted the role Cretton will play in the film, believing he is the right creative to direct this adaptation. She emphasized that the movie will be made with passion and a deep love for Naruto, the iconic ninja from the Hidden Leaf Village.
"I think he’s a great choice because he can capture how nuanced and special Naruto is without getting distracted by the vast world it represents, something I believe could easily happen with someone who isn’t a fan or is just in it for the money. This is definitely a movie born out of love for who Naruto is as a character and his relationships," Huo stated.
As expected, fans are excited by these comments. Some anime or manga adaptations to live-action have been disappointing for not staying true to the original material and opting for different creative directions.
Everything indicates that the live-action Naruto movie will adhere to Kishimoto’s work and attempt to capture the emotional depth and most thrilling moments of this popular character’s story.
