Netflix has announced five new anime titles are in development, including series based on Pacific Rim and Altered Carbon.
Pacific Rim will expand upon Pacific Rim and Pacific Rim: Uprising, and focus on two siblings who pilot an abandoned Jaeger in an attempt to find their missing parents across a hostile, Kaiju-peppered landscape. Craig Kyle (Thor: Ragnarok) and Greg Johnson (X-Men: Evolution) will act as co-showrunners.
Altered Carbon is set in the same universe as Netflix’s live-action series, which is receiving a second season. It will “explore new elements of the story mythology,” is all Netflix has said about the anime series so far. It will be written by Dai Sato (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo) and Tsukasa Kondo.
