John Cho to star in Netflix’s live-action Cowboy Bebop adaptation…

Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop has found its crew — most of them, anyway.

Three, two, one, let’s jam.

Netflix’s live-action adaptation of Shinichirō Watanabe and Keiko Nobumoto’s revered 1998 anime series Cowboy Bebop has its main cast, and Star Trek’s John Cho is set to lead the group and will star as protagonist Spike Seigel, a bounty hunter whose lethargic personality hides a dark past. No matter how far he travels on the spaceship Bebop with his crew, Spike struggles to outrun his criminal past and the woman he lost and finds himself (and his crew) hunted by the villainous Syndicate.

Mustafa Shakir, who stole the spotlight in Luke Cage season 2 as the vengeful Bushmaster, will portray Jet Black, Spike’s partner in crime and a “father figure” to the misfit crew. Daniella Pineda (Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom) has been cast as the mysterious Faye Valentine, while Alex Hassell (Suburbicon) will play Vicious, Spike’s arch-nemesis and former partner.

That still leaves one major bit of casting: Ed, the androgynous young girl who is a genius at technology and also loves to walk around on her hands. In a statement, Netflix wrote “Radical Ed is hacking in, but not cast just yet.”

Cowboy Bebop has been a longtime favorite series for anime fans, with a massive reputation around the world for its surreal plots, stylish action, and Yoko Kanno’s wildly diverse score, which gives each episode a different musical theme.

The series, which started off as a television show, and was adapted into a manga and spun off into a 2001 movie, follows Spike, Jet, Faye, gangly hacker kid Ed, and corgi Ein as they chase criminals around the galaxy in 2071.

The bounty hunters also referred to as “cowboys,” travel aboard a space vessel called the Bebop. Spike has an ugly past with Vicious, a criminal with ties to an illegal organization known as the Red Dragon Crime Syndicate. While they were once friends, an affair between Spike and Vicious’ girlfriend, Julia, sets them against each other.

Netflix’s adaptation will run 10 episodes. Shinichirō Watanabe, the anime’s original director, is set to act as consultant on the series. The first two episodes are being written by Christopher Yost, the screenwriter on Thor: The Dark World and Thor: Ragnarok. There is no launch date for the series at this time.
