For years Warner Bros. has unsuccessfully tried to adapt Katsuhiro Ohtomo's Akira for a Hollywood. Last we knew, Jaume Collet-Serra (Unknown) was set to direct, and Garrett Hedlund was to play the lead role of Kaneda and Twilight's Kristen Stewart was to play the female lead, Ky. Things fell apart as Warner Bros. wanted to give the film's $90 million budget another $20 million haircut. Since then the film has been put on the shelf indefinitely. But we can at least check out these storyboards created by Jeffrey Errico, and watch the video below in order to compare the two. Enjoy!
Please keep in mind that these might not have been created for the Jaume Collet-Serra's version of Akira, as there was two director's attached to the project previously.
