Ghost in the Shell – Lots of action and atmosphere
Laeta Kalogridis, scriptwriter for the Ghost in the Shell adaptation spoke about the upcoming Dreamworks / Steven Spielberg project Ghot in the Shell.
“..the script for Ghost In The Shell will be drawn from Masamune’s manga comic and that it has “a lot of action… lots of action.” However, she then added, “there’s still going to be a lot of atmosphere – [The movie] is about vast possibilities – all of this technology, the Internet – it’s about the limitless possibilities of this technology.”
Q: Is that a remake of the 1995 film or is that an adaptation of the earlier manga?
“LK: “Ghost in the Shell” was originally the manga. The anime came from the original graphic novel and then – and that anime, as you know, is a relatively famous, groundbreaking piece of material – also generated two seasons of an animated television show as well. And this is an adaptation of the original manga, the original comic book that sort of began everything.”
