It's been some time since we've recieved an update on the live-action Naruto movie, but that has all changed as it has been revealed that Tasha Huo, the showrunner of Netflix's upcoming Tomb Raider animated series, will be writing the film.
Huo, who was also involved in The Witcher: Blood Origin and the upcoming MIghty Nein and Red Sonja, loves the opportunity to adapt existing stories.
"Adapting iconic characters or IP makes the writing of it easier, because the passion for writing it is already there,” Huo says. “I’m so inspired by these characters already that it’s exciting to just take a part of their journey and try to tell that fun story in a way that would appeal to me as a fan.”
Reports of a live-action Naruto film began to surface back in 2015, and it was said that Michael Gracey was onboard to direct and that Avi Arad would be producing the film alongside Geoff Shaveitz, Erik Feig, and Kelly O'Malley. Arad was recently in the news in a big way as it was revealed he was partnering with Nintendo and Shigeru Miyamoto to develop a live-action Legend of Zelda movie.
The last time we got a major update on the Naruto film was in 2018 when Gracey said they were still working on the script.
"So many Hollywood adaptations of really popular manga series just don’t get it right, and for me what was really important was that if I was gonna do Naruto, I wanted to actually work with [Naruto creator Masashi] Kishimoto and get a script to a stage where he would look at it and be excited about realizing it," Gracey added. "Because no one knows the world better than the person who created it."
