And what anime is that?
Cobra: The Space Pirate!
Cobra was a classic scifi seinen manga (that means for adults, instead of teen mangas shonen).
A story about a bounty hunter half-cyborg guy called Cobra, armed with an arm-gun, who used to brainwash himself for infiltration missions and stuff. (which I always suspected as the inspiration behind Mega Man original look)
Alexandre Aja announced he will direct this (I quote) "faithful adaptation unlike anything we've seen so far."
The man was behind such movies as Piranha 3D, The Hills Have Eyes and High Tension.
And the first pic was just released on a french magazine, because of how popular it was there (I know it, I watched it on french channels!) and to help promote and hopefully finance the movie, with Cannes coming soon.
Here's the pic, enjoy!
He's got the look down!
He's got the arm-gun, the cigar...
And is that..huh...Tom Jane?? (no infos yet, the magazine wasn't released yet)
Can't wait!
(let's hope it doesn't turn into another Dragon Ball...huhhh..)
