Japanese manga phenomenon Dragonball Ball Z is coming to the bigscreen, per Variety.
Justin Chatwin (War of the Worlds) and James Marsters (Buffy, Angel) have joined the cast and will begin shooting later this month.
Chatwin, 25, will star as Goku, a powerful warrior who protects the Earth from an endless stream of rogues bent on dominating the universe and controlling the mystical objects from which the film takes its name. He has already begun training with 87Eleven, the stunt performance company behind the action sequences in The Matrix, The Bourne Supremacy, Mr. & Mrs. Smith and 300.
Marsters, 45, is onboard as the film’s villain, demon king Piccolo.
Dragon Ball Z:The Movie is set for a worldwide Aug. 15 release.
DO YOU THINK Twentieth Century Fox made good casting choices — YAY or NAY?
