Today, February 5, Bandai Namco announced that it has reached a cooperation agreement with the American entertainment giant Legendary Entertainment (the parent company of Legendary Pictures) to produce a live-action movie for the first time with its most influential IP "Mobile Suit Gundam". Please stay tuned for further details.
·It’s finally here! "Mobile Suit Gundam", the time-honored legendary IP, is finally being adapted into a Hollywood movie! Regardless of the strange circle of movies that destroy the original work, the appeal of "Mobile Suit Gundam" alone is enough, and the series' thick and solid world view settings and wonderful story atmosphere are indeed more suitable for live-action movies than some fantasy anime works that only increase combat effectiveness.
·For this legendary planning, Bandai Namco has specially established a North American branch, Bandai Namco Filmworks America, and will continue to promote the overseas business of its IP in the future.
