Looks like Fox is getting ready for another Dragonball film. The studio, pleased with the films earnings in Asia, has decided to fast track the sequel for a 2010 release, at least according to Variety:
“20th Century Fox is fast tracking the sequel to it’s as yet seen hit “Dragonball Evolution”. The film, which has earned a collective $21M in 8 Asian markets over the last three weeks; reportedly half its initial budget, opens worldwide on April 10th.
Reborn, the illusive subtitle to the sequel, is based on the popular manga turned animated series created by Akira Toriyama. James Wong is set to direct from a script he penned. Stephen Chow is once again set to produce and the entire cast, including Justin Chatwin as the films iconic hero, and Chow Yun-Fat as his mentor, are set to return.
The studio is also looking to expand that roster and are currently courting Twilight star Robert Pattinson to play the films villain. The film is expected to begin principle photography in Montreal this July, with a tentitive release date of Spring 2010.“

Villain? James who? I really hope these morons are kidding when they said that… and it’s pretty much clear now that these numnuts are interested in making money and not a quality movies if they do bring in Twilight-boy as the movie’s villain. And no offense but since when does 21M stand as being a hit in the box office, yeah it’s in Asia but that’s supposed to be a bonus, not 21M… GEEEZ

I’m pretty sure this is an april fools joke, but I can see him making a good Raditz or Vegeta… preferably Raditz. Robert Pattinson can do a lot for the franchise, namely make it a fuck load of cash. Likely warranting a higher budget then 45 mill (yes that was Evolutions budget go to dbthemovie.com and see for your self)… I’d be happy

there is no way Robert Pattinson is going to join the cast of dragonball. he is becoming really popular and he has the twilight frachise. my guess is they are thinking of vegeta. they should cast Raymond Park aka Ray park aka darth maul aka toad. he is just made for the role.

If the producers of DragonBall: Reborn wanna completely alienate their core audience and become victim’s on millions of people’s hitlists, go for it. Hell, that would be a mistake NOBODY would ever forget. And the irony would be incredible. Hell he doesn’t even have a widow’s creek.

I plan on making a very long deep review (Which is exactly what it deserves) about the movie so you might look forward to that.

Many of you have seen me at dbthemovie.com. I’m this movie’s worst fucking hater, boy. Ya, this better be an april fools joke, just like DBE is. This movie is so fucking stupid, I thought it WAS an april fools joke. God damn, they fucked up this movie so bad. Why are they gearing up for a sequel? This movie sucks, why can’t they see that? WE need to tell fox to stop it with the april fools shit, and get right down to business and create some hi-def porno. They should of spent 45million on making a porn movie, I’d watch it. Fuck this movie, If you have any plans to see this movie, don’t fucking do it. Don’t fucking see this fucking movie. I’m begging you. Ok, Goku, he looks like that guy from “The Invisible” I hate that fucking movie. And Bulma, She looks like that chick from “The day after tommorrow”. And Piccolo, he looks like a spike from Buffy. My dog is name buffy. I’ve never seen this actors before, and chow fat cow un, I’ve seen him from croching tiger hidden doragons. Movies with unknown actors don’t make alot of money. The reason why it made 21 million is beacause of the name. I can make a movie called ghost in the shell and people will watch. It’ll be about a dog named spike who trys to find a shell with a ghost in it, and the ghost kills him. That’s it, I made a movie.

Anyone saying that the person would be Vegeta is a complete fucking idiot.
Hello?
Lord Piccolo preceeds Piccolo Junior and his appearance, and he hasn’t appeared yet.
So the only assumption left would be (if this were real) that he’d be Piccolo Jr.
Personally i don’t see where all the baseless hatred to Twilight is, people are too quick to judge things just because it’s light-hearted romance novels-turned-movies that make a shitload of money worldwide and it rewrites (like many other things) the vampire myth in many ways. It’s happened before, it’ll continue to happen until we die. Get over it. Besides, vampires don’t exist so there’s nothing to feel so prejudiced towards. Christ.
Oh. And totally digging the baseless hatred to Robert (Twilight actor) just because he played a vampire in the film and because the film did so well. IT’S TOTALLY COOL TO MAKE FUN OF SHIT YOU HAVE NO REASON TO HATE IN THE FIRST PLACE!
Just to point out a note for those looking for another anime live action movie that strayed heavily away form the source and practically got little notice from fans (as this isn’t the first) and was also based off a huge hit: Initial D.
Sooooo many things were changed it’s not funny. Oy.

@Rod
I can see your point but I don’t see ONE. SINGLE. franchise as killing off an entire…myth or everything that vampires stand for. That’s like saying Hellsing Ultimate is THE standard for everything that vampires are supposed to be, which it isn’t (while way cool).
I just find it stupid for people to go apeshit over it because it’s just ridiculous. No way around it.
@Shawna
I understand, but I personally find the whole “I hate X because *random person/fangroup* keeps talking about it too much” is such a bullshit and judge-first-think-second way to avoid dealing with something. So what, if a large number of people are talking about something and you don’t like it? Why the hell should it affect you or make you judge it in any way, shape or form?
If I let Naruto’s popularity get to me (as I was watching some fansubs before it ever became licensed in the US) just because a load of kids and creepy adults latched onto it quickly then that’d be ridiculous and I’d be missing out on something I enjoy. Things like Naruto were made with the intention (as I see it) to be mainstream and hugely successful so for me, that’s fine.
I’d like to see examples though of people who got annoyed with other famous things that loads of others like, for instance all these comic-book-movies that keep coming out, like Watchmen and Spider-Man.
I personally don’t understand the big deal of Watchmen but that won’t stop me from wanting to see it.

I can actually see robert patinson as vegeta. Just needs to die his hair comletely black. But he’s too young to play raditz. Also, vegeta should have a little facial hair. Just like a small amount of wiskers. That just makes him look not so young. But I don’t think that Stephen Chow and James Wong should work on this agian. I think that Steven Spielberg, Sam Ramni or Micheal Bay should do this movie.

We’re not even done with DragonBall yet at this point as we have to showcase Piccolo Jr (the Piccolo everyone comes to love) in the next movie. Plus there’s Tien, Krillin, and some other characters to showcase. What about The Ox King, Chi-Chi’s dad?
It’s only the, ONLY then once that film releases that we can start realistically wishing for who can be what character.
I personally want them to find a reasonable solution to Raditz and his mountain of hair he has….Nappa shouldn’t be hard to cast and then there’s Vegeta; a very important character to play as Chatwin’s complete opposite.

he would make a crappy Vegeta, and he’s too tall at 6′0. Vegeta is supposed to be shorter than Goku at around 5′8 – 5′9. If anything he’d make a decent Raditz…..but honestly this is lazy casting at its finest. this is just another way to cash in big time since pattinson is the all the teenybopper rave thanks to that shitty twilight shit flick.

Wow you guys are STILL thinking that the next part would be a DBZ movie, even going so far as to try to make guesses or wishes who would be Vegeta and whatnot?
*****You are foolish to try and make people feel like they are stupid for suggesting choices for Vegeta. Chatwin even said the sequel will be more “intergalactic” thats Sayian saga my friend. Also he said it will go more DBZ than DB, so again, Sayian saga. Also people can have w/e guesses or wishes they want for Vegeta, he is kinda an important character to get right. My choice is Jonathan Rheyes Myers or Joquein Pheonix, they both have the “bad boy pretty boy” look that Vegeta requires. Also Rheyes has shown us some great things, like when he placed the King of England in that movie, he really seemed like an arrogant prince. Phoenix would obviously be the better choice and the best so far out of what every one has suggested mainly because he is the most gifted and proven actor out of the lot, but he’s in retirement and prob too high-budget for a dbz film.
James Macvoy(or w/e) is most certainly not proven in a role like Vegeta’s. Even in “Wanted” he wasnt a bad ass or prideful arrogance, he was too smilily and happy, even during his action sequences, honestly hes more of a Goku actor than Vegeta.*****
Guys.

*****Again the Chatwin interview disproves this theory.*****
It’s only the, ONLY then once that film releases that we can start realistically wishing for who can be what character.
*****No, not really. People have been wishing for certain actors to play certain characters for years now, WAY before the film was even announced. Go to youtube and look at people’s choices for many different things, people are giving their choices for actors to play comic book characters, remakes of old moives, old TV shows being made into movies, books, plays, cartoons, video games, etc… Point is we DONT have to wait before we can start wishing for people to be characters.*****
I personally want them to find a reasonable solution to Raditz and his mountain of hair he has….Nappa shouldn’t be hard to cast and then there’s Vegeta; a very important character to play as Chatwin’s complete opposite.
*****Cant argue with the Raditz hair, I think perhaps just down to his middle or lower back will be long enough. As for Nappa, the best choice is clearly Nathan Jones over the more popular Goldberg. Why? Nappa is HUGE with a more pointed nose.
Goldberg is 6′ 3″
Nathan is 7′
Goldberg has a round nose
Nathan has a more pointed nose
They both have about same experience in films and Action films, however Nathan has FAR more experience in Martial arts flicks. He was in “Fearless” and “The Protector” and “Jackie Chan’s First Strike” Also Nathan is younger and more unknown so cheaper for budget, which is better for a role like Nappa’s since its simple and this way they can focus the budget on other things. Also BOTH started out in WWE Wrestling! Nathan alos weighs more and is bulkier/wider than Goldberg(not just bulk either, he’s RIPPED as well.) *****

The best Vegeta I see would be is James Mcvoy and King Vegeta would be Hugh Jackman.

the next movie is based on DBZ…because there is still piccolo alive, and what should he will do in a ‘red ribbon saga’?
PiccoloRed Ribbon, but
Piccolo=From DBZ in.
Logical 😀

if I was James Wong, eliminating the saga of radish, and
start directly from that of the Sayans(Vegeta and Nappa).
My adaption should be like this. 😉
Is the most logical way to do a sequel

I think if they were to do a movie on Vegeta’s saga a lot is gonna be changed. I mean all they do in the anime is stay on some island [I think] and take turns fighting… and waiting for the hero to arrive. I say go for a risk, may sound crazy but go straight to Frieza… and somehow introduce the other characters we all love.

@Piccolo
Again, love how you deduct fallacies..even if it’s my own.
I actually had no idea that Justin Chatwin had an interview recently and has been talking about how the next one will be. (is it anywhere online? If so can you link me? )
The thought of them starting up to DBZ in the next one makes my inner fanboy leap in joy. And man…looking on your choices for who would be Nappa..I REMEMBER that guy from that movie, only I saw “The Protector” in its original subtitled glory..never saw it dubbed. Of course when I saw it, it was ages ago and I actually thought “That is a total Nappa right there”. Good choice on figuring who would be Nappa.
I must say….if this sequel is DBZ..they have to, NO MAYBES, they HAVE to have Vegeta’s live action actor to say the 9000 line. 😀 It’s a must, lol.
