World’s most popular OTT platform Netflix has recently shared the first images of its upcoming live-action ‘Cowboy Bebop’ series starring John Cho. The series is scheduled to release on November 19.
John Cho will play the role of Spike Spiegel, a gun-toting, martial arts expert bounty hunter; Mustafa Shakir as Jet Black an ex-cop and Spike’s partner; and Daniella Pineda as Faye Valentine an erstwhile ally of the crew when she’s not off pulling off one of her own scores.
The series will be adapting episodes from the original anime. Though no details were announced by Netflix yet.
‘Cowboy Bebop,’ a Japanese science fiction neo-noir anime television series, was created and animated by the company called Sunrise and aired in 1989. Fans of the series are sceptical about the adaptation as Netflix has a reputation for destroying classic content.
