Welcome to Bootleg News Reporter
A world dedicated to anime, manga, and Japanese news found on the web, so you don't have to go to more than one site.
Since the news being presented here is from other sites, they are not my original work and all credit goes to the original author. I'm really bootleging information, thus this world's title.
Well, hope these posts are useful and if you want to be a guest poster, please pm me.
Ok, I finally made a background^^ but I'm still tinkering with the header banner though. If you have ideas about the Bootleg's design, please let me know.
This information was pm to me by marajsky.
Whether it’s legitimate or not, is still in question. Even though there is this video floating around, there is no hard proof that I found that this could be true.
From this site they have a quote from the director, but what I don’t get is that they never say the director’s name. Here’s the quote:
"This was produced several months ago as a spec teaser to get the greenlight from Japan. As of this point, production is moving forward and I will be directing it. My company is not producing as I was pulled on by an established production company who has already produced comic-to-film adaptations.
To answer your other question, this focuses on Seras' origin story and her entry into the Hellsing Organisation and it will be shot in England. I can't say who we are casting as the lead, but she looks exactly the part and everything about the story is as true to the originating material as can be. It will be very dark and gritty, mixed between something like the Russian film Night Watch and the ** rabble :robotmad: ** feel of the american film Constantine.
My goal is to make this very real feeling, and to ground all that seems unbelievable in some sort of reality. You'll dig it, I promise"!
Theres also a new British T.V series currently shooting for a September release on ITV called "The Last Van Helsing".
"6 x 60' supernatural drama series for ITV1.
‘In-humans’ – supernatural entities with freakish powers – are on the move and the only one who can stand in their way is Luke Forsythe. Luke is a normal, everyday 17-year-old Londoner until, one night, he wakes up to find a mysterious stranger raiding his fridge.
Philip plays CIA operative Rupert Galvin, a "larger-than-life" American with a "tragic past and a zero-tolerance policy to the rabble of mythical half-life entities" in the as yet untitled new ITV1 drama series. The drama, currently known internally at ITV as the "untitled Van Helsing project", will put a "contemporary spin on the legacy of Bram Stoker's Dracula" and be set above and beneath the streets of modern-day London. Philip's character will appear in the life of his teenage godson, Luke, played by Robin Hood's Christian Cooke. Luke's father died in mysterious circumstances and afterwards Philip's Galvin is "catapulted into a world of vampires, demons and zombies". The Office's Mackenzie Crook will also appear as the evil Gladiolus Thrip, a sinister vampire with a burning hatred for the Van Helsing lineage. "There are supernatural forces of evil at work and it is Luke's destiny, as the last descendent of the Van Helsing line, to smite the half-lives that stalk our streets," ITV said. The drama will be made by Elisabeth Murdoch's independent production company, Shine, which previously made Sky One's supernatural series Hex. It will be produced by the team behind Hex - Julian Murphy and Johnny Capps - and written by two writers from that show, Peter Tabern and Lucy Watkins, as well as Hotel Babylon's Howard Overman. The six-part drama was commissioned by ITV director of drama Laura Mackie. It is currently filming in London with an ITV1 transmission expected later in the year".
