“Insulting The Concept Art”: Live-Action Akira Bikes Caused Fight With BMW, Ex-Director Recalls
Director Albert Hughes recalls how the live-action Akira movie’s bikes caused a fight with BMW. The Japanese manga series, adapted into an animated film back in 1988, explores Neo-Tokyo, following Shōtarō Kaneda as he attempts to stop his childhood friend Tetsuo Shima from using telekinetic powers against the city. The movie has been praised for its style, and overall influence on the genre, but a live-action iteration of the source material has struggled to come to fruition. Various directors, including Hughes and his brother Allen, have been linked to it over the years.
