Now both Ghost in the Shell director Rupert Sanders and Johansson herself have spoken out in support of the movie, too.
Those who are working on the live-action Ghost in the Shell have thus been keen to assure fans that the film will be a respectful adaptation; one that comes with a seal of approval from Ghost in the Shell animated movie director Mamoru Oshii, no less.
Sanders likewise offered his assurances that “This isn’t the s**t Hollywood version.”
2017 is set to bring plenty of talked-about and highly-anticipated blockbusters to movie screens, though few have generated as much pre-release controversy as the live-action Hollywood remake of the anime/manga classic, Ghost in the Shell.
