BRZRKR Anime Locks Down Batman Writer, Production Start Date

As a huge fan of Keanu Reeves and his captivating body of work, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming anime adaptation of his comic series, BRZRKR. The actor has truly outdone himself with this project, and it’s no surprise that it’s gained such a massive following.

Keanu Reeves, known for his iconic status in pop culture, is preparing for an exciting new venture. Last year, he collaborated with Matt Kindt to create the successful comic “BRZRKR” (2021). Now, an anime adaptation of this popular work is underway, and significant developments were shared at Comic-Con in San Diego over the weekend.

During the yearly convention, a discussion took place for “BRZRKR” at which Production I.G. unveiled fresh information about the upcoming anime. Excitingly, Mattson Tomlin has been signed on to write and oversee the project. His recent involvement in anime was through “Terminator Zero,” and his writing credits extend to renowned franchises like “The Batman.”

In terms of production, the BRZRKR project is set to begin this fall with Tomlin involved. However, details beyond this point are scarce. Back in 2021, Netflix unveiled plans to develop an anime and a live-action film based on the comic. Reeves will headline the live-action production, leading fans to speculate that he may also lend his voice or appear in the anime. According to Netflix, the BRZRKR anime is expected to continue the storyline of the live-action movie, and Reeves has mentioned that the series will span over two seasons.

The renowned actor’s involvement in BRZRKR has generated great anticipation among fans, as they look forward to seeing how the anime adaptation pans out. With a substantial financial commitment, Netflix is expanding its collection of original anime productions. Already known for series like Devilman Crybaby and Scott Pilgrim vs. the World: The Series, this latest addition to their lineup will only strengthen their presence in the anime industry.

If you’re curious about the comic book “BRZRKR,” you can explore its complete storyline through Boom Studios’ publication. For a better understanding of this acclaimed series by Reeves, here’s a summary for your perusal:

“An Unending Conflict: A man called B., who is both human and divine, is afflicted with a relentless propensity for violence, risking his own mental stability. After roaming the earth for centuries, this Berzerker could have discovered sanctuary – by serving the American administration in combating battles too brutal and perilous for others. In return, B. will be granted the long-sought knowledge of his endless violent life and its termination.”
