Funimation announced on Tuesday it is offering disc replacements for its release of the 4K remaster of the Akira anime film.
Warner Bros. announced a live-action film adaptation of the manga in 2008, with Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok, Boy, Hunt for the Wilderpeople) directing the film.
The film was previously slated to begin production in fall 2019, and its release was scheduled for May 21, 2021.
Entertainment news website Variety reported in July 2019 that Warner Bros. has delayed the film indefinitely.
