We’ve known for a number of years that a one-punch man movie is in the works without really having any more information. This time we know the director.
The film One punch man in live action therefore has the right to a renowned director since it’s just Justin Lin. The man behind Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift or even the final episode of the saga, viz Fast and furious 9. A man who knows how to handle action movies the way they should be, but not only… Because he is also known to have directed some episodes True detective.
One Punch Man, what’s the story?
To guide him in this always somewhat complex task of adapting a live-action work, Lin can count on the duo of Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinkner, who worked on certain Jumanji: Next level. Which we’re hoping brings some quality to the One Punch Man narrative.
Overwhelmed
For the record, One Punch Man is a successful manga, to say the least, with no fewer than 30 million copies sold worldwide, which now also has an animated series, which has been a real springboard for manga popularization.
The story allows us to follow the incredible adventures of Saitama, a man who decides to train for three years at a speed of 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 100 abs and a 10 km run. He then becomes so powerful that he can defeat an opponent with a single blow. To the point (it was easy) of getting bored in life for lack of challenges.
