Cary Joji Fukunaga has been in the long haul with Bond pic No Time To Die, as the 007 saga has flitted from release date to delay during the pandemic. Yet he hasn't been idle, setting up a number of new projects. And he's adding to the list with a planned adaptation of sci-fi comic book series Tokyo Ghost.
Rick Remender created the title alongside Sean Gordon Murphy for Image Comics, and Tokyo Ghost is set in the year 2089, when humanity has become fully addicted to technology as an escape from reality. It follows the story of peacekeepers Debbie Decay and Led Dent, who work in the Isles of Los Angeles and are given a job that will take them to the last tech-free country on Earth: the garden nation of Tokyo.
Fukunaga is producing the film, and will start looking for a writer to bring it to life. Meanwhile, No Time To Die is still sitting on its current release date of 30 September this year.
