JEFusion announces the confirmation of the Live Action Gyakuten Saiban movie!
The live action adaptation of the popular adventure/visual novel Nintendo DS game Ace Attorney, also known as Gyakuten Saiban (逆転裁判, "Turnabout Trial") by Capcom, is now confirmed under the helm of Takashi Miike!
The live action Ace Attorney movie stars Narimiya Hiroki as the series’ main character "Naruhodo Ryuichi" (Phoenix Wrigh), and he’ll co-star alongside Kiritani Mirei as "Ayasato Mayoi" (Maya Fey). Phoenix Wright’s rival "Mitsurugi Reiji" (Miles Edgeworth) will be portrayed by actor Saito Takumi.
Set in 2016, the plot of the movie takes place in an urban city in Japan. An increase in heinous crimes forced Japanese attorneys and prosecutors to confront each other in a new court system. With only three days the most, speed is favored over hard evidence and forensic science to prove their innocence. This system forces both the defense and the prosecution to do much of their own hurried investigation before time runs out.
To retain the iconic elements of the video game series, special effects will be used to enhance the visuals in important scenes. This will retain the game’s catchphrases - such as "Igi ari! (Objection!)" and "Kurae! (Take that!)". The movie will even be set in a specially built courtroom to maintain the charm of the original games.
Filming will finish around June. Ace Attorney live action movie is set to be released this Spring of 2012.
