I am not familiar with this manga, but I am with Rina Hashimoto. I find it neat she is going to star in a movie, and she looks to be a perfect fit to play the role of the protagonist of the story in terms of appearance as she looks almost like this her. It also helps that Rina is a gravure model as well so playing this role I can imagine is going to be easier for her since she has experience.
So yeah good for her. I do not know if I would be able to see it though that is unless someone decides to bring it here (which I do not see happening) or someone translates the film.

Just read two volumes of this manga. It's...interesting to say the least.

It gets more action later on and tones down the sexiness in favor of martial arts fighting which is par for the course for Rui Takato's works.

It will be trash like all live-action adaptations.

For this one that's fine, since the original material is already trash.
Actually i am surprised that it is getting an adaptation.

This is the main problem of this work, I think. Because, the part “perverted lewd humor” and the part “ecchi martial arts” in this manga have so different emotional moods, realism and seriousness in writing the plot that they seem to exist in different worlds and cannot work when they collide together.
For example, MC's lesbian relationships are either portrayed (depending on the general mood of the arc) as meaningless sex without any commitment, or as a serious romantic relationship, or again as “friends with benefits” as loopholes for yuri hentai scenes. I'm not talking about the fact that the author seems sincerely to believe that while you lead a lesbian lifestyle and do not sleep with men, you supposedly maintain your chastity and remain a pure girl.
In general, I think that it would be more useful if the author wrote two works, one as an ironic lewd comedy about the AV industry (Sarah's spin-off was essentially the perfect base for this), and the other as an ecchi action in the style of Ikkitousen.
