Obviously, the director, Destin Daniel Cretton, is busy with other projects like Shang-Chi and Spider-Man: Brand New Day. When it comes to movies, it appears that superhero films still take precedent, even though a creative live-action anime film could create a whole new popular genre for filmmakers to capitalize on.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">So far, the only thing that has been revealed about the movie, aside from the director, is a fraction of the overall plot. The film is set to cover Naruto during his training to become the Hokage, and the script has already been completed. Cretton&#8217;s other projects clearly take creative priority, meaning it could be a while before the <em>Naruto <\/em>movie actually comes to fruition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Only time will tell if Cretton continues as the director or if someone more available will be chosen. However, such an important project clearly needs to be done well. Such a popular anime has to be handled with the utmost care, or it could risk losing fans or running into another <em>Dragon Ball <\/em>situation.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Cretton was originally confirmed as the director in 2024. There have been absolutely no updates concerning the project since. It&#8217;s highly likely that he is waiting until he finishes his MCU tenure, but there&#8217;s always a chance he will get selected for more films. He seems to have a concrete vision for the films, but it might be time to go with someone more available.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Ultimately, the concept of making any live-action anime adaptation is incredibly risky. It is even riskier to make fans wait several years for this adaptation without saying anything. At this point, even a terrible movie would be better than no movie. Hopefully, fans don&#8217;t have to wait too much longer, knowing that the script has been completed and the director has been selected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/movies\/articles\/box-office-report-always-always-034515985.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Related: Box Office Report: Always-ALWAYS-Always Bet On Anime;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Related: Box Office Report: Always-ALWAYS-Always Bet On Anime<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to IGN, there are no updates on the Naruto live-action film, which could mean a plethora of good and bad things.
