“A tale about the inside of your body”: Cells at Work Live Action Movie Trailer is Exactly the Kind of Fun You Would Expect
Look alive, people! Cells at Work! is getting a live-action movie adaptation. The number of live-action anime adaptations is increasing annually, and current blockbusters like Yu Yu Hakusho, Avatar: The Last Airbender, One Piece, and many more are filling out the schedule. Warner Bros Japan is currently delving into the internal conflict that exists within each of us, as the first trailer for the live-action film Cells at Work! was just published.
Even while the original series concluded in 2021—with a special edition focused on the coronavirus pandemic, no less—several spin-offs have carried on the franchise by centering on newly discovered cells battling to survive. It was expected that the well-known manga would eventually be adapted into an anime, and David Production took on the project.
Cells at Work! Reveals Live-Action Trailer
Fans are giddy with anticipation over the cast announcement of the much-awaited live-action movie adaptation of the popular anime series Cells at Work! Mei Nagano will play the red blood cell, which is the primary character, while, Takeru Sato will play the white blood cell.
The new teaser reveals that Warner Bros. is staying true to the look of the iconic anime series, even though a live-action version of this tale may seem unlikely.
