With
production on hold since early 2012, the Akira long awaited live-action
adaptation seems too far for the fans of the popular anime, but so
you can scratch that itch of frustration here are some concept art images for the
film.

is a description of the film:
“Kaneda
is a bar owner in Neo-Manhattan who is stunned when his brother, Tetsuo, is
abducted by government agents led by The Colonel. Desperate to get his brother
back, Kaneda agrees to join with Ky Reed and her underground movement who are
intent on revealing to the world what truly happened to New York City thirty
years ago when it was destroyed. Kaneda believes their theories to be ludicrous
but after finding his brother again, is shocked when he displays telekinetic
powers.
Ky
believes Tetsuo is headed to release a young boy, Akira, who has taken control
of Tetsuo’s mind. Kaneda clashes with The Colonel’s troops on his way to stop
Tetsuo from releasing Akira but arrives too late. Akira soon emerges from his
prison courtesy of Tetsuo as Kaneda races in to save his brother before Akira
once again destroys Manhattan Island, as he did thirty years ago.”
