The recent cancelling of Cowboy Bepop has not deterred Netflix from taking on more live-action adaptations of animes.

It has just been announced that the Mega Man script announced back in 2018 will be coming to life on the streaming platform. Supermarché, as well as Chernin Entertainment and Netflix, will all be taking part in this task for the live-action of Capcom's Rockman character.

Many fans are iffy on this one, as much as they would like to see Mega Man exposed to a new generation of fans, history has shown us that these live-actions are very difficult to pull off.

In other entertainment news, Spider-Man: No Way Home receives a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes.
