Now, Netflix is venturing into creating a live-action adaptation, which has generated both excitement and concern among the otaku community.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Two prominent protagonists<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The production will feature performances by Sydney Sweeney and Noah Centineo, and will be directed and written by Jim Mickle, known for his work on Sweet Tooth. This project has undergone several changes in its original team; screenwriter Brian K. Vaughan and director Jordan Vogt-Roberts were replaced, leaving only Sweeney as part of the original cast. <strong>The news of these changes could signal uncertainty regarding the direction this adaptation will take, generating anticipation among an audience that expects loyalty to the original work.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mobile Suit Gundam | Toonami Promo (4K)\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/tOMAqWVFAns?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the fact that live-action adaptations of animes often face severe criticism \u2014and many failures are remembered\u2014, Netflix continues to bet on Gundam. <strong>The franchise has proven to be an economic draw, generating approximately 600 million dollars annually in rights and merchandising<\/strong>. This represents a considerable incentive for the entertainment giant, which seeks to capitalize on the interest that its vast mythology continues to generate.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the challenge is monumental. Gundam fans are notoriously demanding and have deep expectations about how the original material should be represented<strong>. With the pressure of such a passionate fan base, the adaptation faces the titanic task of being true to the essence of Gundam while trying to attract new audiences<\/strong>, which can be a delicate and complex act.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Netflix\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/bb71af8a-96bf-11e6-8279-00163ec9f5fa\/1690710143\/netflix-Download-Netflix.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Netflix<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/netflix.softonic.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/netflix.softonic.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first time the world heard the word Gundam was in 1979 with the anime Mobile Suit Gundam, a phenomenon that gave rise to an extensive franchise that includes television series, movies, mangas, and video games.
