We've now heard from a source close to Warner Bros. that the studio is planning to make a trilogy of films based on Akira - all the better to do justice to Otomo's sprawling dystopian sci-fi yarn, perhaps.

Most intriguingly of all, we're told that Christopher Nolan has met with a previously attached filmmaker (who we can't name here) within the past three months to talk about the project.

Looks like the Forbes guy knew something after all. Also, I guess this means he's working with Leo again just off screen? Did Leo turn him onto the project?

Let's not say ridiculous stuff. Nolan was going to do Akira , and only one third of it ? It doesn't make a lick of sense.

He might produce it like he did with MOS.

Hopefully his involvement would only be in an producing capacity like Man of Steel.

Maybe he's involved in some capacity but I seriously doubt he's directing it.

Nobody reports news with "could". Could ? The hell is that ?
