The studio has just ordered a rewrite on the script from the writing duo of Jon Hoeber and Erich Hoeber, who are best known for writing the comic book adaptations Red and Red 2.
Maybe if Jon and Erich Hoeber can come up with a solid take, Naruto can be the thing that changes that.
The news comes courtesy of The Hollywood Report, who also report that Michael Gracey is still attached to direct the Naruto movie.
As for Jon Hoeber and Erich Hoeber, they have a good amount of experience with action-heavy adaptations.
