FirstShowing.net say that according to a reliable source, Fox should soon be announcing a “Cowboy Bebop” live action film starring Keanu Reeves. The source claims the film will be fast tracked and could have a release date in 2010.

Whether or not you believe it, the new trend in Hollywood is Asian culture. The first three big films that will open the door for more to come are Dragonball, Street Fighter, and Tekken. And we already announced live-action adaptations of Akira and Ghost in the Shell as well, so why not throw Cowboy Bebop into the mix as well? By 2012 we’ll probably see all kinds of anime and manga adapted from Berserk to Hellsing and more.
