Bunraku with Gackt and Josh Hartnett!

[YoshimiTheEthereal]

In the U.S. in 2009, a spaghetti western titled "Bunraku" is to be shown in theatres. It will star Josh Hartnett as a drifter and j-rock singer Gackt Camui as his partner, Yoshi, who is a samurai.

Any new info or speculation on this?

Here is a pic of Hartnett and Gackt, and one of the movie poster:

My dad says it sounds like "Shanghai Noon", with it being a western with an asian fighter and stuff. I just hope it's good. They just finished filming it in Romania. It is supposed to have a cool look to it, similar to "300" and "Sin City".

I wish Gackt had a bigger role, though. He is only co-starring! He should be the main character. Oh well. At least he's in it! Yay!


Here is a picture of Gackt's hand for the movie:

That... is a weird combo. O_O''

MAN Gackt looks scary next to that dude! >_<'

I'm glad Ron Perlman is in it too!

Although, considering they're making it phantasmal, shouldn't they use fighters with experience? Like.. Maybe Tak Sakaguchi instead of Gackt?
