"A live action Attack on Titan project was first revealed before the anime, but is now slated for 2014. I'm guessing that it's going to feature an all Japanese cast. It was looking for locals in Itako in play extras during 2011 filming, before the project lost director Tetsuya Nakashima. Still, Japanese fans have had some fun putting together a (mostly) foreign dream cast for the film.
Now, in my opinion, the picks circulating Japanese blogs range from interesting to plain bad, but it's still a thought provoking list."
What are your thoughts on this list? Personally, it doesn't matter who they get to fill Erens place, it'll never be as good as the anime. Kristen Stewart needs to be kicked from this list, imo. Not sure why the Japanese fans decided on some soccer players...^_^
