Mobile Suit Gundam is making its first live-action movie Legendary Entertainment

Today, February 5, Bandai Namco announced that it has reached a cooperation agreement with American entertainment giant Legendary Entertainment (the parent company of Legendary Pictures) to produce a live-action movie for the first time based on its most influential IP "Mobile Suit Gundam". Please stay tuned for more detailed news.

·It’s finally here! The long-standing legendary IP of “Mobile Suit Gundam” is finally going to be adapted into a Hollywood movie! Regardless of the vicious circle of some movies ruining the original works, the appeal of “Mobile Suit Gundam” alone is enough, and the series’ heavy and solid world view setting and wonderful story atmosphere are indeed more suitable for live-action movies than some fantasy anime works that only increase combat power.

For this legendary plan, Bandai Namco established a North American branch, Bandai Namco Filmworks America, which will continue to promote its IP overseas.
