At Anime Expo 2018, Legendary Pictures announced it was collaborating with Studio Sunrise to create the first live-action Mobile Suit Gundam movie. Broadly speaking, the narrative most Gundam anime follow has a young protagonist battling in a cool mech while the show expounds upon the horrors of war between intergalactic nations. While details on the film have been scant, what we do know is that it will be set in the “Universal Century,” a timeline most mainline Gundam anime exist in. Kong: Skull Island director Jordan Vogt-Roberts, who just so happens to be directing that Metal Gear Solid live-action movie we all forgot was happening, will direct the live-action anime film as well. The Gundam movie will release on Netflix, because of course it is.
