Mandalay Pictures has acquired theatrical rights to and will develop a big-screen version of "Full Metal Panic," a Japanese manga series It's a Light Novel series adapted into a Manga and Anime actually, much like Haruhi that blends action, comedy and high school romance, says The Hollywood Reporter.
The property derives from writer Shoji Gatoh's series about a teenage anti-terrorist commando named Sousuke Sagara who is given the mission to protect a high-school girl with mystical powers.Not Mystical you STUPID FUCKS!
"Panic," which is set in a world almost exclusively without adults WRONG!, is known for mixing visceral action with wry comedy.
Zac Efron's name has surfaced in connection with "Panic," with the actor holding a conversation on the project, adds the trade. He's also potentially attached to the Warner Bros. adventure Jonny Quest.
Okay... THIS is Zac Efron
and THIS is Sagara Sousuke, a JAPANESE boy who grew up in AFGHANISTAN
GOD FUCKING DAMN IT HOLLYWOOD STOP TRYING TO ADAPT ANIME TO MOVIES IT WON'T WORK AND IT ONLY CAUSES US PAIN
EDIT: Just noticed that at no point do they mention FMP is a mecha series
