Lionsgate is working on a live-action ‘Naruto‘ movie, with Tasha Huo penning the script. After a decade of anticipation, fans can finally expect an announcement soon.
In an interview with Variety, Huo revealed she had developed the scripts for ‘Red Sonja,’ ‘Naruto,’ and the animated version of ‘Tomb Raider‘.
Huo said, “Adapting iconic characters or IP makes the writing of it easier because the passion for writing it is already there.” Huo added, “I’m so inspired by these characters already that it’s exciting to just take a part of their journey and try to tell that fun story in a way that would appeal to me as a fan.”
‘Naruto’ is a Japanese manga and anime series about a young ninja named Naruto Uzumaki. The story follows Naruto’s journey to become the leader of his village, the Hokage.
