Talking to MTV News, Leonardo diCaprio revealed that he is waiting for the final draft of the live-action remake of classic anime film Akira. He also noted that Ninja Scroll is still in early development stage.
One can easily epect Hollywood to screw up these projects, but diCaprio seems committed not to make them fail.
"I’m a big fan of Japanese anime… I know there a lot of loyal fans out there of the project and die-hard fans, so we’re going to try to do the best job we possibly can and we’re not going to make the movie until the script is in the right shape," he said.
Finally, he added that he has no plans to star in either film though his Appian Way company is producing both projects.

AKIRA AND NINJA SCROLL GOING TO MOVIES.
Leonardo DiCaprio and his production company Appian Way will produce movies based on Akira and Ninja Scroll,DiCaprio should have a talk to Larry Kasanoff on his involvment on Ninja Scroll so I think Kasanoff will still produce Ninja Scroll with DiCaprio and Warner Bros.
This can be one of the things that id Ninja Scroll is still in early development.
Thank you
