Indonesian genre specialist Timo Tjahjanto has begun production on “The Shadow Strays,” a new action film project.
Tjahjanto is one half of a writing-directing pair with Kimo Stamboel that are colloquially known as the Mo Brothers and previously delivered “Headshot.” However, it was as a solo director that Tjahjanto was signed to a multi-film deal with Netflix in 2022. He delivered his first picture under that arrangement later that year. “The Big 4” debuted in Netflix’s non-English language top ten.
Production of the new title is handled by Frontier Pictures with Wicky V. Olindo and Anne P. Ralie named as producers. The completion date has not been revealed.
Tjahjanto has assembled a kicking ensemble cast, many of whom previously appeared in “The Big 4.” The cast includes Aurora Ribero, Hana Malasan (“Ben & Jody”), Ali Fikri, Adipati Dolken, Kristo Immanuel (“The Big 4”), Andri Mashadi, Taskya Namya (“Waktu Maghrib”), Agra Piliang,...

In the world of enka singer Hiroshi (Sho Aoyagi) most of his life revolves around the various performances he has to give in front of crowds largely consisting of middle-aged women. Bored and visibly appalled by these events, he tries to leave them as soon as possible, but this time Masako (Mariko Tsutsui) stops him on his way out of the last venue he sang in. Eventually Hiroshi finds he has been drugged by Masako and drops unconscious, only to find himself back at her apartment when he wakes up.
Interwoven with Hiroshi’s story are the stories of Tetsuo (Nobuyuki Suzuki) and Takeru (Keita Machida). The first is an ex-con who returns to his home town, after having spent many years in jail, to take revenge on those on some men who betrayed him, which eventually led to his arrest.

Based on the popular Japanese series ‘Tokyo Ghoul‘, written and illustrated by Sui Ishida, a live-action film titled Tokyo Ghoul was released in 2017. Tokyo Ghoul introduced us to a college student, Ken Kaneki. He transformed into half human and half ghoul after organ transplant, leading him to the moral conundrum to act on his ghoul vices. ‘Tokyo Ghoul S’ takes the story further in the sequel that is slated to be released on July 19, 2019.
The trailer features a host of familiar faces, other than the protagonist Kaneki Ken, that includes Shunya Shiraishi as Nishiki Nishio, Hiyori Sakurada as Hinami Fueguchi, Nobuyuki Suzuki as Kotaro Amon. Another highlight is the appearance of Matsuda [served as animation director for One Piece Film: Gold] as Shū Tsukiyama, who desperately wants to eat Kaneki. Maika Yamamoto will be replacing Fumika Shimizu in her role as Tōka Kirishima.

Live-action anime adaptions have an interesting history to say the least. They can be great but some have been rather problematic (Dragonball Evolution). One of the latest franchises to receive the live-action treatment is Tokyo Ghoul so the question is: Where does it stand among adaptions?
Tokyo Ghoul is set in an alternate reality where ghouls exist among humans. Ghouls can only survive by feeding on human flesh so because of this, they have to hide themselves in order to avoid capture by the authorities. The story centers on average college student, Ken Kaneki, who is attacked by his date who turns out to be a ghoul. Unfortunately, surviving this may not have been a blessing as Kaneki is transformed into a half-ghoul as a...
