It has been a year and a half since we broke the news exclusively here on B-D - and about a year since THR confirmed (without credit of course) - that Ruairi Robinson would be making his directorial debut on the live-action adaptation of Akira, a massive two-part apocalypse story that was being produced by Leonardo DiCaprio's Appian Way and Warner Bros.

Ezra Miller, the emerging star of indie thriller We Need To Talk About Kevin, and Alden Eherenreich (who starred in Francis Ford Coppola's Tetro) are the names surfacing most often with the reading.

As far as I can tell, that's not a "motorcycle", it appears to be a glorified "scooter" (as in automatic) with a custom fibreglass shell and a big GPS.Samurai_Jerk wrote:It took him 7 years. He may have had a lot of fuck ups and restarts.
