For something a little less proven, the path sometimes skirts the cliff\u00a0of production hell, the place where countless scripts, pitches, and\u00a0half-finished films go to die.\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The live-action\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mega Man<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> movie spent the last five years teetering on that precipice, a killer concept\u00a0with enough juice to keep it\u00a0one step away from death\u2019s doorstep.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The movie first surfaced in 2015 with scant details, just names with well known movies to their credit. <i>Mega Man<\/i> was supposed to be produced by Chernin Entertainment with David Ready and Michael Finfer overseeing it for the company and Peter Chernin producing. The trio was responsible for the recent movie reboot of <i>Planet of The Apes.<\/i> Then the movie finally found itself a director and writer in 2018 when Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman came on board. They worked together on three different Paranormal Activities movies when they agreed to work on <i>Mega Man<\/i> and the choice looks better considering their most recent project.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span class=\"related-single\">RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/mega-man-movie-writer\/\">The Batman Writer Penning Mega Man Movie Script<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pair teamed up to write and direct <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Project Power<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which\u00a0is now on Netflix.

Originally called Rockman in Japan, it follows the story of a robot named Rock who served as a lab assistant for two prolific scientists in robotics, Dr. Light and Dr. Wily. When the latter turned evil and began to turn other robots designed by Dr. Light to his cause, Rock chose to have a blaster attached to his arm and became Mega Man in order to defend the world from Wily&#8217;s set of Robot Masters. Other characters also joined the fray to help Mega Man, like the robot dog Rush who could turn into everything from a jet-powered skateboard to a submarine. Mega Man&#8217;s sister Roll also helped out from time to time and the mysterious robot with a yellow scarf named Proto Man also stood in his way. The first game released in 1987 and 10 more came after it in the main timeline with Mega Man 11 releasing in 2018. Outside of video games, Mega Man appeared in comic books, television and even light novels so it&#8217;s not that far of a leap to to see him in a film adaptation.<\/p>\n<p>After the release of\u00a0<em>Project Power,\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/2020\/8\/19\/21371974\/mega-man-movie-writer-story-mattson-tomlin-capcom\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tomlin spoke about his involvement<\/a> on the <em>Mega Man\u00a0<\/em>movie with Polygon Editor Matt Patches.\u00a0During the interview, Tomlin gave a few extra details about his approach to the live-action adaptation. He said \u00a0that he came on board to work on Mega Man because he enjoyed working with both Joost and Schulman\u00a0and that he\u00a0wanted to push beyond the iconic\u00a0visuals to\u00a0tell a compelling story. \u201cIt\u2019ll be universal and primal and emotional and everybody can kind of relate to. So I\u2019m really excited about that script. I\u2019m really excited about what the guys are going to do with that movie and and hopefully there\u2019ll be some news about it soon.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joost and Schulman also hinted at big news to come during Comic-Con\u2019s at home series of virtual panels. They\u00a0teased a &#8220;big update&#8221; about <em>Mega Man<\/em> during an interview with IGN\u2019s Terri Schwartz. The panel itself was about <em>Project Power<\/em>,\u00a0 but when Schwartz took a brief moment to ask about <em>Mega Man,<\/em> Joost responded there would be some &#8220;big news&#8221; about it coming soon.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NvfeN695E0w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this point, live action Mega Man is on the\u00a0verge of getting made. The producer, writers and directors are there, finally and the latter both made promises of \u201cbig news coming.\u201d Sure, some plot details would be nice or maybe a hint of who the cast might be, but after five years of being a a pipe dream, &#8220;it&#8217;s not cancelled&#8221; is good enough.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/mega-man-movie-writer\/\">Mega Man Makes Awesome Death Stranding Joke to Kojima<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Production of the Mega Man movie has been a slow and arduous journey, but its just steps away from finally getting off the ground.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":672,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Mega Man Movie Taking the Long Path to Completion | Game Rant - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Production of the Mega Man movie has been a slow and arduous journey, but its just steps away from finally getting off the ground."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59134"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/672"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59134"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59134\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":59135,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59134\/revisions\/59135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59134"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
