Netflix has cast another major role for its upcoming Cowboy Bebop live-action series. Elena Satine (Street Angel) will play Julia.
Netflix’s official character description reads, “With a sultry beauty and a voice to die for, Julia is the dream-like object of Spike Spiegel’s desire. She struggles to survive in a violent world.”
In the original anime, Julia is a figure from Spike’s violent past that continues to haunt him in the present. This casting choice suggests Season 1 will feature flashbacks to the freewheeling bounty hunter’s days in the Red Dragon Syndicate and his relationships with Julia and arch-rival Vicious.
