Fabien Dubois (whose previous shorts include Akira, Burn, and High/Low) and Aladdin Serroui (director of Je suis un echo and co-producer of Welcome to Hoxford) have been working on their short Here We Are for quite some time, and I've beel following it with great anticipation since seeing photos from their location shoot in Iceland. Now a trailer has dropped, and I don't think I (or anyone who sees it) will be disappointed. Two science students (Serroui and Antoine Lesimple) travel to a remote part of Iceland to test a large-scale magnetic theory.

With their Akira adaptation shelved for the time being, Warner Bros. is looking to another manga to take to the big-screen. The studio is zeroing in an adaptation of the popular Japanese series Bleach. We already reported they picked up rights nearly two years ago with Get Smart director Peter Segal producing, but now they’ve brought on a scribe.
Variety reports the studio has hired Dan Mazeau (Wrath of the Titans) for scripting duties and bumped up Segal as a contender to director. Tite Kubo‘s story follows “a 15-year-old boy who has the ability to see ghosts and meets a female Soul Reaper, a member of an order that escorts the souls of the dead. A fight with an evil spirit causes the Reaper to transfer all her power to the boy, leaving her stranded in the human world and the boy taking over her job as a fighter of evil.
