Legendary’s live-action feature adaptation of Gundam looks to have found a home as sources tell Deadline that Netflix is on board to distribute the pic. Sydney Sweeney and Noah Centineo will star with Sweet Tooth director Jim Mickle helming.
The project has been co-developed between Legendary and franchise owner Bandai Namco Filmworks, from Mickle’s own script. Mickle will produce with his partner Linda Moran through their production company Nightshade. Centineo is also producing with his partner Enzo Marc.
The plot is under wraps, but this will mark the first live-action feature in the Gundam world. A live-action Canadian telefilm called G-Saviour aired on TV Asahi in 1999.
