Live-Action Terraformars Film's 3rd Clip With Incomplete CG Streamed

Shun Oguri's Dr. Honda tells Hideaki Itō & Emi Takei's lead characters about Bug Operation

The staff of the live-action Terraformars film released a third 15-second clip from the film on Monday. The clip features incomplete CG footage. In the scene, Dr. Kō Honda (Shun Oguri) briefs the lead character Shōkichi Komachi (Hideaki Itō) and heroine Nanao Akita (Emi Takei) about the Bug Operation:

Honda: But in order to go to Mars, a somewhat dangerous operation is needed. You all have a fairly high rate of compatibility with this operation. As you are now, you're fated to be executed for the crime of murder. And you have 10 years for accessory to murder, give or take... But if you help eradicate the cockroaches on Mars, not only will you get an innocent verdict... But you will also receive an extremely large sum for your efforts.

In the first clip posted two weeks ago, Mina Ōbari (a character based Zhang Ming-Ming and played by Eiko Koike) says, "Bugs 2's windows are made of specially hardened glass. They won't easily be..."

In the second clip posted last week, Ichirō Hiruma (Takayuki Yamada) faces a Terraformar. At the end of the clip, he prepares to infuse himself with the abilities of the Sleeping Chironomid, which allow him to enter a state of suspended animation without dying, even in an environment that lacks water.

The film will open in Japan on April 29, during the Golden Week holidays. Takashi Miike (live-action films of Ichi the Killer, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Yatterman, As the Gods Will, Crows Zero, Mogura no Uta) is directing the film, and Kazuki Nakashima (Gurren Lagann, Kill la Kill) wrote the screenplay. The Sandaime J Soul Brothers from Exile Tribe music group will perform the theme song for the film.

A live-action prequel, Terraformars: Aratanaru Kibō (Terraformars: A New Hope), will premiere online on April 24.

The Terraformars Revenge TV anime sequel series will also premiere in April.
