I don't know if there is a big enough bitch of an actor out there to really capture Shinji's character.

WETA was working up SFX treatments for it for awhile, but I've not seen anything new in the last year or so.

Yeah, ADV was financing it. We got some early concept art 2-3 years ago, but nothing since. I'm sure it's long dead.

It would be really interesting to hear the story of it's failed development, though.

Isnt ADV "hurting" from piracy (aka Himuro)? Im sure this project was their sacrificial lamb to create the drama needed to drive a point home.

Piracy played a part in it, but ADV massively overextended themselves in the mid 00's. Funimation and Bandai have snapped up a lot of their properties (Full Metal Panic, Sgt. Frog, Gurren Lagann).

Gainax put up their half of the production costs, but ADV never did. Considering their current financial situation [they're tanking hard and fast], I doubt they ever will.

I really want someone to leak information about this theatrical disaster.
