The film will be a live action and animatronics version of the show and work is taking place in co-operation with Jim Henson Pictures. The movie is scheduled to begin filming this summer. Apparently, this won't be one of your low-budget children's films with the incorporation of the CGI and animatronics into the movie. So far, the only name anyone is able to attach to the show is Todd Alcott from "Antz" who will be the script writer. There is hope to get the film out by Christmas of 2000, but probably more realistically early-mid 2001 source that is old news, the movie is set to be released in 2008. ( IMDB info ) Directed by Genndy Tartakovsky Writing credits Osamu Tezuka (comic series) Genndy Tartakovsky (screenplay) Genre: Action / Animation / Sci-Fi Plot Summary: When a scientist's young son dies, he secretly creates a powerful robot child to replace him, however the robot uses it's incredible powers to become a world famous super-hero, and faces his biggest challenge when an alien race threatens Earth... thats all of the info about astro boy ( that i could find ) i really want to see that movie whene it's get released, i'am interested how it look like
