Hollywood to Possibly Remake "Kansen Retto"

"Kansen Retto," a new film directed and written by Takahisa Zeze about a pandemic virus, is being picked up for a Hollywood remake even before the movie's completion. Zeze's film was announced in February and started shooting in March, but it won't be ready for release until next January. According to the production team at TBS, the remake contract has already reached the final stage of negotiations.

"Kansen Retto" stars Satoshi Tsumabuki as a doctor fighting against the outbreak of an unknown virus and Rei Dan as an officer of the World Health Organization. It was exhibited at the film market of the Cannes Film Festival, and the promotional materials attracted the attention of buyers even though no footage was shown at the event.
