  • all your picks suck

  • Fantastic picks man.

  • Lol I hope this is a joke, because its the funniest damn thing I have seen this year.

  • Adrien Brody as Spike would be awesome. Gwyneth Paltrow as Julia would be awesome. Good luck making the latter happen though! Gwyneth Paltrow doesn't just outta the blue wanna make an Anime-to-movie production.

  • Milla Jovovich as Faye...NOT.

  • Dakota Fanning as Ed I rly don't like. It's not a very good match

  • How could you call for Fishburne to play Jet, but have that paste-face girl play Ed (the darkest character on the show)? That makes entirely no sense. If they have a conscious at all this is just a horrible rumor. It's already way off course.

  • Lawrence Fishburne is a good call for Jet, but I think Mickey Rourke would NAIL IT!

  • I agree with MrReded69 about Maggie Q, but feel that the best choice for an actress to play Faye would be Milla Jovovich.

  • Maggie Q looks too bad ass and intense to be Faye.She doesn't give the bratty self centered vibe Faye should give off, at least at first sight.I don't want to say Meagan Fox so maybe Liv Tyler?Yeah, Faye can kick ass and is a devil with the cards but you're not supposed to know that until she's blazing away with her MP5 or made off with all your money.Also, can you picture Maggie Q walking into a trap like Faye does in Ballad of Fallen Angels?Remember, Faye doesn't have the best judgement.

  • I wouldn't mind someone new doing Spike. Please God don't let them cast Bruce Willis as Jet Black. Harvey Keitel would actually make a better one, maybe even Jean Reno.

  • THANK YOU! Adrian would make a wonderful spike.

    A newcomer for Radical Ed, please.

    I am not sure who the lady was for Faye but she seemed great.

    And I think Gwyneth would make a great Julia.

    Bruce Willis is too comical and not serious enough for Jet.

  • this si the worst out of 3 casting idea's i've seen, i mean come on that first guy, he's just would be so emotionless and melancholly, maybe he'd be good in a film about ghosts and jazz, but cowboy bebop with the leading role? suckkk!

  • akien no le va agustar CowBoy Bebop si es uno de Los mejores animes K pudo Existir !!!

    

  • Larry Fishburn as Jet Black? Close, but no cigar. And yes, it's because he's black and Jet clearly wasn't. Not racism, just paying proper respect to a character. After all I doubt black people would like it if a strong black character was played by someone who was anything else.

  • @KillerKrieg If you are going to reject Laurence, do it for the right reasons: he wouldn't necessarily be good in that role. Did you have a problem with the person posting this using an Asian woman for Faye? Would a Dachsund make a less great Ein? Get real, please.

  • @TheSoulflower Hey, I AM being real, Broham. I don't recall saying Maggie Q would make the perfect Faye either and I don't feel she would. Her tits simply aren't big enough to be Faye, is the principle issue, that and she doesn't quite look the part. I mentioned Larry first because I feel it's a matter of principle that the race of the character must *always* remain the same. I had an equally large problem with the Max Payne movie because of Ludacris as Jim Bravura.

  • @TheSoulflower So I feel I AM rejecting him for the right reasons. Maggie Q is half white, so I felt that the idea to cast her wasn't so much of a blatant misfire as it was poor choice of match. I don't like seeing a character being turned a color they OBVIOUSLY weren't before, kind of like going into something expecting Cheese Cake and getting Lemon Marange instead. It's good, but it's obviously just not what it was supposed to be.

  • all the choices for Spike are too damn old..! he was 27 when he died, guys, c'mon..

  • Ein is going to be the best actor, hands down.

  • @sheena659 You are so right.

  • who ever play spike mush train know jit kun do marshall art and must b cool and charismatic this will be hard

  • Willis for Jet Definately!!!

  • I think Paltrow is a good choice! I dont like the picks for vicious or jet.

  • What about Christian Bale as Vicious? He looks pretty cool with long hair. Don't agree with Lawrence Fishburne though. And as sad as I am FOR Reeves, I'm glad he doesn't

  • i love that Ein got a picture lol

  • Anyone remember the live action Dragonball movie? I hope not, for your sake. I'm not trying to be a dick, but I think that anime is anime. Live action, while not impossible, would be difficult to do correctly. More of a hassle than any studio would put up with. So try not to get your hopes up, is all I'm saying. also, the uploader's comments. What they said.

  • I grew up with this, Outlaw Star, and DBZ. The new shit sucks.

  • I like who they picked to play Ein. Random unknown dog. lol

  • For the last time, people... JET BLACK IS A WHITE GUY! He couldn't be more pale!  *facedesk*

  • are u some kinda idiot?

    no offence..

  • everyone not wanting a live action movie because your afraid it ''will not be like the anime'' needs to really stfu, im just saying.

  • @DonNado101 How about I don't want a live action movie that will be a bastardization of the Cowboy Bebop anime? Is that any better? if not tough shit, Cowboy Bebop fans know what they want and what they don't want and have every right expressing their feelings about a live action film.

  • Adrian Brody would have to really beef up on martial arts because Spike is very well trained and I don't think he can pull it off sorry :(

  • wow...i'd have never thought of adrian brody for spike , but after seeing him kick ass in predator, i think he would be freaking awesome....i agree i don't think magie q quite suits faye...great body, but the face is wrong. i do agree that it's nice to dream of a live action, but it will never hold up to the series...

  • Oh Maggie Q, I think I'm in love. ;] I just loooked her up since finding her here, WOW. Yum, anyways I don't think she would suit Faye =/

  • The song is Farewell Blues. The sax on its own is cosmos.

  • this is just my opinion, but I hope no movie will ever be made, it will never ever come close to what the series is, and will fail in comparison. The work and dedication from the creators down to the voice actors is magic and cannot be replicated to live action and will just look silly to me. To each their own. THIS IS NOT THE END...... YOU WILL SEE THE REAL "COWBOY BEBOP" SOMEDAY... but not in a sub par live action movie.

  • Lol i is fan of gweyneth paltrow and i believe she would be an amazing julia.... that would be awesome too bad its not gonna happen i dont think

  • faye's not hot enough

  • any one kno wat song is this?

  • should definitely have been brody, not reeves.. and i actually like the other picks

  • wat the horrible cast

  • I'm not too sure about your other picks, but you NAILED the Spike and Julia picks. Adrien Brody would play him perfect.

  • song title? i hope reeves isnt spike

  • we dont need another persons version on cowboy bebop and all the actor look nothing like them except ein

  • THIS IS why anime is a rare sight in the world. Especially in the US. Hollywood's running out of ideas and touching good classes of the decades and tarnishing them.

  • Adrian Brody would make a KILLER Spike

  • I'm more to Willow Smith being ED though but I don't mind

  • XD...we had the ein!!

    Wheres spike and others?

    GUMM its coming after de 2011.

  • Keanu reeves is awesome!! Maggie Q lovely:).. I think this L.A. movie will be good!! I hope!!

  • horrid choices my god.....Dont get me wrong Keanu reeves cant really act and his accent is horrible but he looks like a friggin Spike Spiegel. I could never believe Adrien Brody to be a ladies man with that schnoze he has, dont get me wrong he can act...but he is no Spike.

  • Your choices for Faye, Jet and Ed I definitely agree w/but I don't think Adrien Brody would make a good Spike and I'm kinda on the fence about Gweneth as Julia.

  • SO JET IS BLACK NOW. EHH W.E THATS ACTUALLY COOL. EDD IS A FUCKING CRACKER THATS NOT FANTASTIC. HOLY FUCK SHIT DO NOT WANT. I WANT MY HISPANIC FUCING LOLI. WHAT IS THIS SHIT OH WAIT DID I SAY LOLI I MEANT UHH UHHHHHH

  • @Yoyokilla1 only one i caught an issue with else where was Keanu as Spike...I like Keanu dont get me wrong but not for our Spike.

  • @Shaboogie101 same here man... i see someone more like joseph gordon-levitt playing spike...but i mean keanu reves is a good actor... but i just feel the character spike needs someone who can pull of his style and bad ass personality :D

  • the movie and the anime are not physicly connected...if ur saying it will burn ur eyes if u watch the movie...how about u just dont fuckin watch it and stop QQin

  • keanu even said the script was amazing, so i'm sure they're not gonna mess it up, i would definitely go see it.

  • okay i hate how people say the movie fucks up the anime because it doesnt even though they suck ass just forget about the fucking movies how the hell does it fuck up the anime thats how you know they dont give a shit about the animes

  • michelle cho as faye....umm i dont quite know but i did like adrian broady either him or keanue

  • NNOOOOOOOO

  • Fishburn would be a decent jet

  • I think I get how you choose there character not only with what kind of attitude but where they came from and how they share attitude.

  • I hope they dont mess it up or else Ill call it some other name.

  • Adrian Brody HELL YES, that would be much better then that deuch bag Keunu Reaves

  • Everyone fits perfect!!! Except for the dog...

    xD

  • 1:56 - DataDog the rescue! :D All he needs is a cape.

  • No. No. Hell no!

  • WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?! What the hell is wrong with Hollywood? Haven't they ruined enough video games and anime shows as it is???????

  • perfect Ein, thats all i gotta say

  • HAHAHAHA THE DOG XD

  • I just hope they don't fuck it up.

  • hey thats the dude from King Kong thats playing Spike n its morfius from the matrix n Anna Sophia Robb from Bridge to Terabithia.

  • hey thats the dude from King Kong thats playing Spike n i love bruce willis

  • NO NO NONONONONONOOONONONNONONNO-NON­O!!!! These are the worst picks ever, except maybe the character for spike but then again that guy is too old, no non nonononononnonon this is a horrible cast list. No!

  • What were you thinking of this cast? I love this anime. Bruce Willis for Jet Black.

  • how can a live movie destroy the anime for you, if anything, a shitty movie would make you think the anime is that much better, but imagine if the movie is kick ass, cowboy bebop has so much material to make a great movie from, i absolutely want a live action film to be made and it's gonna be fucking awesome ya cunts

  • and this is why it was an anime and not a live action to begain with

  • Maggie Q as Faye would be a great great choice much better than christina ricci !!!

  • i fully agree with your choice for vicious. the guy from casshern would be perfect for that role, the hardest one will of course be spike and i think hollyweird really needs to step outside the box on that one and not just go with another pretty boy actor that makes a couple mill just to show his face. i'd like to see the director of casshern take on the movie.

  • good picks for live action cast, . . .but hollywood would fuck it all up.

  • Like, I see where you're aiming for, but I think Keanu's 'Constantine' personality would fit better with Spike.

  • First Dragon Ball

    and now Cowboy Bebop?

    only Transformer is a good Live action move. (until now)

  • roselyn sanchez is more of a Faye, dude.

    not that "no curve having-skin and bones" chick from balls of fury.

    and maybe the young keanu reeves. keanu is old as fuck now. lmao.

    if it was adrian brody, i wouldnt be able to concentrate on the movie cause his honker for a nose.

    hahahahahah

    but on a good note, nice vid, man.

  • Nah horrible cast. In my opinion, the show is already casted by the best guys. Don't fix what isn't broken. If Hollywood now insists on making a movie, which the stupid cuntbags are, then they should pick unkown actors

  • Ein fits best!

  • Hayden Christensen a good Vicious? heeheheheeheehhAHahahahahaHAHA

    no...

  • I think you're on the spot with Laurence Fishburne (he's the only actor with movies I'm relatively familiar).

    Doesn't matter if he's black.

  • THE DOG WILL BE THE REAL PROTAGONIST!!

  • I've probably already mentioned this somewhere here-ish, but there was a fake movie poster floating around a while back it's three contenders were Stephen Dorff as Spike, Clancy Brown as Jet and Cameron DIaz as Faye, the poster looked pretty convincing too.

  • Sry to disappoint, Cowboy Beebop is owned by Keanu Reeves with specific instructions that he must play Spike.

  • I read every single comment, and being that I picked this cast almost 2 years ago, there is no doubt, I would make some revisions, based on your comments. As for the song it is off the Bebop CD box set. But I am at work, I will post the name when I get to my personal PC.

    Thanks for the responses.

  • @neiltron2020 The Song is "Cosmos", and it is on the first Soundtrack from the Series

  • All signs point to no live action Bebop movie in the near future, due to budget/script problems. Even Reeves stated that he is getting to old to play Spike. Thanks to all of you who have commented on this video.

  • adrian brody as spike?? no way..

  • Honestly, I think Adrian really should play Spike. the movie's probably gonna suck, but they could at LEAST have someone other than Keanu.

  • I know he's already type casted for the role, but I just don't see Keanu playing SPike.

    He looks more like Ross from friends than anything...

  • What is the name, how can i found this version of this song!? is it live?

  • anime classics = fucking epic

    Hollywood movie knockoffs of anime classics = RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!

    Hollywod sux balls on turning games and animes into movies.

    I'll admit, the first resident evil was pretty good. But from there it just seems to go downhill. Even Extinction wasn't as great as it could have been.

  • well looks like cowboy bebop is gonna die in the infectious diesease known as hollywood....looks like my beloved series is going to go mainstream sometime soon and its gona ruin EVERYTHING :(

  • NO!

  • wtf random corgy pics lol

  • @dudie5000

    That's Ein. In case you haven't even watched the series...

  • @GojyotheFeared no, i meant like, they could all be pics of different random corgy pets. as apposed to these actors who are all famous for such and such

  • Gwenyth Paltrow would be the perfect fucking Julia.

  • if only stephen blum were in his 20's then he could play spike in this movie

  • Maggie Q is sexy

  • unfortunately hollywood does not work like this... they wont put in alot of effort into choosing a caste.. it will depend on the budget.. New upcoming actors would be best... they will thrive on the role more.... the older more seasoned actors... will study when they will get their manicures done.. or how much milk they need in their coffee

  • @mikhailstewart NO!!.....HOLLYWOOD ALWAYS MAKE ALL OF THIS ANIME LOOK SUCKSS!!!....DONT EVER DREAMING ABOUT IT!!

  • @Hakaishi00 i not disagreeing with you.. its just that... Everyone here would like a change... everyone WOULD LIKE TO SEE HOLLYWOOD get it right... to me the closest hollywood ever got was X-Men trilogy....

  • @mikhailstewart i dont care about that...all of thing willl always goes wrong when it gived permision to hollywood....dragonball is turn out sucks so hard....street fighter....tekken...and manymore.....

  • i disagree with ed and faye the rest i can def see

  • Adrian to play spike would seriously be sooo good

  • If they really make this movie, hope it is not SHIT like Dragon Ball Evolution

  • NO WAY! YOU ARE TOTALY OFF!! PEOPLE, STOP PICKING ASIAN ACTORS FOR THE PARTS JUST BECAUSE ANIME IS ASIAN DOESN'T MAKE THEM GOOD CANDIDATES FOR THE ROLE

  • this might sound racist but no asains in the cast =/ the way theyr drawn in the show is portrayed as "western" so make then "western" not eastern

  • I think Adrien Brody would be a great Vicious, not Spike. He's got that gaunt, haunting, birdlike visage. And he can do the crazy.

  • i live action Bebop movie??? NOO!! hollywood is destroying my childhood one anime at a time

  • @brooklyn560= They destroyed mine with that travesty they called G.I. Joe= The Rise of Cobra. That kid from Dark Shadows as Cobra Commander? Come on. Anyway, I think AnnaSophia Robb is just too old to portray Ed.

  • I like those choices, different but good. I like Adrien Brody way better than Keanu for spike, good call on that one!

  • muhahaha look at that dog!!! He ist just looking like ein!!! Oh my god!!!

  • what's the name of this song? I know it's Stella by Moor but it's a different version...

  • what is the song ?

  • seems ein will be playing as himself in this movie XD

  • All I have heard is that freakin' Keanu is slated for Spike. minus infinite on that, I swear to god I'mma get so damn pissed if he fucks it up.

  • lol I wonder why there's more pictures of Maggie Q than anyone else... BY GEORGE I THINK I'VE GOT IT! It's because she's fucking gorgeous isn't it?

  • Oh, oh, here is my idea on who should star! NO ONE! They shouldn't ruin all good anime with their stupid americanized idea's and movies!! >_<

  • you do realize laurence fishburne is a black guy right?

  • @thedemonmors tbh, I love the idea of fishburne playing jet. he's similar yet re-invented so in case he does an AWFUL job, it doesn't leave a bad taste in our mouth about the original Jet. same goes for spike. for the live movie, they should re-invent him totally instead of trying to find someone similar and ruin the whole thing

  • Your choices for spike and jet are the best I have seen

  • NO.....hollywood will fuck it up like always

    and COwboy Bebop is a master piece.

    SO DONT TOUCH IT!!!!!!

  • DAMN...this is great music...

  • i like all your pick but spike and edd

  • really wish that joseph gordon-levitt was playing spike. hands down there is no one better for that position. fuck keanu reeves.

  • worst ever.

  • keanu reeves might not be a bad second for spike, jessica biel for julia, hayden christiansan for vicious, lawerence fishburne for jet not bad, you need a much more spaced out girl

  • @Jager1967 HAYDEN CHRISTIANSAN IS A WHINEY, BITCHY NO TALENT MOTHER FUCKER WHO RUINED A GREAT FRANCHISE (even though it is kind of george lucas's fault for raping his own franchise) WHO COULD NEVER PULL OFF VICIOUS!!!!

  • Race has nothing to do with these picks at all does it? I dunno if that's a good or bad thing.

  • IF HOLLYWOOD FUCKING RUINS ANOTHER GREAT ANIME CLASSIC IAM GANNA BURN THE MOTHER FUCKER DOWN

  • @Cexxloc Im in call me when you go,i want to take part!

  • @Cexxloc dont say that when u know they going to dick it harder than a dildo

  • @Cexxloc They can never ruin the awsomeness that is Cowboy Bebop.  Regardless of their misguided intentions; the worse they can do is produce a horrible, bastardly, life action abomination that will be presented stillborn and remain forever dead to me. The origional anime will still remain classic and eterally epic.

  • @Cexxloc If this movie DOES end up getting made, i'm getting a posse of bebop fans to protest this fucker.

  • good picks

  • very good choice

  • im diggin this cast

    

  • Spike is going to be played by Kianu Reeves.

  • @K3R0R0lllllPLAT00N Worst actor ever they shoulda got James Franco or Hayden Christen wateva dont know how to spell his name

  • this is bullshit none if these people are in this movie the only person who's been confirmed is keanu reeves (playing spike). movie comes out in 2011

  • is all a shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • are they ever really going to make this movie??? :/ adrian brody is an interesting choice. anything besides keanu reeves--uhk.

  • this is complete fail lol

    since we know who's spike then

    Spike - Keanu Reeves

    Jet - Bruce Willis

    Faye - Kristanna Loken

    Julia - doesn't matter

    Edward - random 14 year old girl

    Ein - Ein

    Raven - Johnny Depp

  • LMAO at Laurence Fishburne playing Jet. Thanks for the laugh. Holy shit I'm dying from the thought of that.

  • cowboy bebop makes smoking look cool lol

  • adrian brody is perfect as spike!! whoever said his nose was "too long".... ever LOOKED at spike's nose?

    not sure about your other picks though.

  • ok now some of those i can kinda agree with but the fuckin black guy from the matrix as jet?

    you have got to be kidding me

  • this is fail.

  • you suck

  • that spike do look right but adrian brody nose is to long...

  • Ok the jet an Fay is ok but I actually thought tht vampire tht died in the first twighlight would be a bad ass vicious

  • Ugh Terrible none of these actors don't even look remotely like the charactors in cowboy bepop...... they fucked up big time turning anime into the real world may have been the worst idea yet

  • I had to think who AnnaSophia Robn was, then I remeered...no...no no no...

    There is no acctor for Ed, she's to epic.

    I'm not sure about everyone else...

  • Good picks!

    Adrian Brody & AnnaSophia Robb are perfect for

    Spike & Ed

  • wow no way, these actors won't do at all. Especially MaggieQ for Faye? SOOOOOOO bad... But anyways, it's impossible for real life actors to play the parts of such unique rolls. Jet would be the easiest to get right though.

  • nope nope nope doesnt work at all

  • I actually think I would do a good job with Edward. I can do and Edward voice and I'm 13 years old. I don't think people should be flaming this movie yet, we haven't even seen a commercial or anything for it. Would it be in theaters though? That's my question.

  • for vicious, i think cilian murphy would be ok

  • Adrien Brody? Nooooo. Did you see him in The Brothers Bloom (arguably my favorite movie)? He can't pull of that level of cool. He doesn't have the face for it.

  • I wasn't sure at first how I felt about your choices... but they're definitely better than some of the others I've seen. I's not sure about Adrian Brody being able to pull off Spikes quirkiness correctly, but he's certainly got the awkward body type that Spike has. XD

    I was thinking maybe Chloe Moretz as Ed? :3

  • fuckin gaijins

  • @sijotakane lmao

  • great music man...what song is that playing?

  • I rember now....Her Name is Shannyn Sossamon .

  • @Nm0083 As Faye? I could see that. :3

  • good list but for faye i would say the chic from the korn make me bad video with the black hair u cant miss her she would fit perfect...im pretty sure shes an accomplished actress..

  • I call bullshit...

  • Dammit this is going to be a bigger train wreck than the dragon ball incident

  • @guobadia53156 i doubt that.... its going to be based on spike when he used to work for the syndicate
