Twentieth Century Fox is planning a movie version of the popular anime hit Cowboy Bebop (which follows a group of bounty hunters such as Spike and Faye gunning for bad guys across space), with Keanu Reeves looking likely to play bounty hunter Spike Seigel. I’m assuming that this will be a live action film as there has already been an amimated movie of Cowboy Bebop. This might actually be a lot of fun if handled correctly (treat it as a romp) – I wonder if they will keep the original anime’s heavily musical vibe? And who will be poured into Faye’s costume?
