Hit Manga "One Piece" Getting Live-Action TV Show from Prison Break producer
- Thread starter Kurita
- Start date
between Naruto, Bleach, and One Piece, this is literally the series that would be hardest to do in live action.
I can't even fathom how this would be done with a AAA studio. You'd need to bring in Weta Workshop just to make it bearable.. and we're talking a TV series?
first they fuck it up with the horrible dub on Cartoon Network, and now they are going to butcher it with a TV series. Someone wants to turn America against OP.

Hasn't One Piece suffered enough in the US?
Principate
Saint Titanfall
The main characters are pirates, devils fruits are hardly out of place.

I want to be excited... but how will they do this? I dunno, pretty tepid on this one.
Ergo Proxy by Bryan Fuller.
please no,this scares me XD
I think 4kids dub did enough damage to the franchise in the west.
There's so much that I can't see translating well to a live action (fights, the crazy range of character sizes to the different types of races), to me this would need a really crazy budget that you'd find on movies.
They would have been better off adapting a smaller series like with death note.

I don't even understand how the hell this will work, can't say I'm not intrigued though.

Oh dear god that's a horrible idea.
Well, there's a Naruto live action movie coming out this year, and nobody cares enought about Bleach to adapt it, so...

There is a bleach live action film in production. Nobody will care though, you're right.
Oda says to the live-adaptation staffs, "Do not betray ONE PIECE fans who have been supporting us for 20 years." He also says, "Some people may be worried about this project, but don't miss it!"
So he basically gave a warning as his 'blessing' to the project, and request for curiosity at best.
It's sad to think he may have had little, if any, authority over the green lighting of this project.

Yeah, if the 2000s Fantastic Four movie got stretchy powers right, 2017 live-action One Piece can surely do it.
I hope it's not so serious, something like Kung Fu Hustle overall would be great

I'm sorry. What?
"Live Action"? I get. We seem to be getting a lot of that.
"U.S." Really?
"The Producer of Prison Break"
Are we sure this isn't a very late April Fools Joke?

I don't know how this would even work but I want to see it happen just for the giggles.
And pray it's actually good.

as i said earlier in another topic about a onepiece movie, it's not doomed to fail.
there was a day when even the marvel cinematic universe was considered an horrible idea...and now basically anyone is trying to copycat the same model and they are making an absurd amount of money
it really comes down to the usual 3 factors..money,effort and talent...without one of the three it will be a bad product..but there's the possibility that they menage to nail all three, and since the original material is good,i don't see why it shouldn't work.

How would this even work? 
They just use the closest thing, probably "family", think Fast and the Furious.
