Also, Emmy Rossum recently signed up to play Bulma, a scientist and inventor whose father’s Dragon Ball is stolen by the villain, Piccolo. And Eriko Tamura, the popular Japanese actress who depicted Yaeko in popular TV series Heroes, will play the character of Mai. The cast also includes Justin Chatwin, James Marsters and Jamie Chung. Park Joon-hyung also has a part of the upcoming movie with fellow Korean singer, Rain, in Speed Racer (2008) where he plays a Yakuza driver. credits: popseoul.
Emmy Rossum....as Bulma? I don't know...why don't they just another anime movie.... none of this live action stuff. But i agree with wind2000, it does look like some heavy hitters are being recruited...except for the lead playing Goku...really, everyone should be asian. Except for whoever plays Hercule.
lol true to that.........lol i can;t wait till it comes out..........lol DBZ brings back the good old days lol......just fighting and resolving our problems
the cast is so varied, i don't think they will do a good job with a live-action movie such as dragon ball, most live-action flop
totally agree with you there...they should just make another 'movie-version' but not the live-action one..well, let's just wait and see how it goes..
all these diverse asian celebrities being recruited for the minor roles lols...but Emmy Rossum is hot...
This is a "dragon ball movie" not a dragon ball "Z" movie so i personally dont think yamcha is that buff. There will be no super saiyan or what so ever in the film so is not really a good film to watch. -dead
this will be the biggest disaster since...well...let's just say this will become the gigli of cartoon adaptations.
