Rossum Stars In Dragonball
Emmy Rossum has booked the female lead in 20th Century Fox's Dragonball, based on the popular Japanese manga, Variety reported.
Justin Chatwin stars as Goku, a warrior who protects the Earth from a stream of rogues bent on dominating the universe. James Marsters plays the film's villain, Lord Piccolo.
Rossum (The Day After Tomorrow) takes on the role of Bulma, whose father's Dragon Ball is stolen by Piccolo.
The story is based on Akira Toriyama's manga, which has spawned graphic novels, a long-running TV series and more than 25 video games. The movie is shooting in Mexico and Los Angeles.
Final Destination helmer James Wong is directing from a script he penned. Ben Ramsey wrote an earlier draft.
James Marsters as Piccolo? I don't dislike him, but he doesn't have an 1/8 of the muscle mass piccolo has... Nor do most humans.

No. Fuck NO. OH HELL FUCK NO.
Whyyyyyyy? Next they'll be making Naruto or Bleach or Katekyou Hitman Reborn into live action.
NO.
LOL. I shall refer to this movie not as Donkey Balls Z
Is Hollywood so strapped for ideas that they need to rape anime? This news is full of suck. Like, over 9,000 kind of suck.
If they need to make live action anything, why not pick from the many tentacle porn anime that's out there? At least they're not gonna ruin anything. Goddamit.
Did you see the commercials for the new Transformers cartoon? *ugh* The animation is terrible. TERRIBLE!
Oh well. So long as they don't take away Bleach, Naruto, Blood, and the others... I could just pretend none of this is happening.
