You can add another name to the list of those circling a role in Jaume Collet-Serra’s upcoming live-action adaptation of Akira. Oh, Bella. My how you’ve grown! Read on for the details.
According to Twitch, Twilight‘s Kristen Stewart (pictured right; Adventureland, The Runaways) has been offered the part of Kei, a young medium who becomes the love interest for Kaneda – the role already offered to Garrett Hedlund (Tron: Legacy).
Gary Oldman and Helena Bonham Carter have also been offered parts in the Warner Bros. backed US adaptation of Katsuhiro Otomo’s classic manga.
