According to Weekly Shonen Jump, a Gintama Live Action movie will be released in 2017 (instead of 2018 as had been rumored). It will star the popular actor Oguri Shun. This seems to be a fitting role for Shun, as he's a well experienced veteran in the Japanese film industry. In addition, his latest films Lupin III, Nobunaga Concerto: The Movie and Terra Formars have received very warm responses from both the audience and the critics.
Yuichi Fukuda (HK: Forbidden Super Hero The Abnormal Crisis,Yuusha Yoshihiko series, Mr. Nietzsche in the Convenience Store, Aoi Honoo) is going to be the director / scriptwriter.
