The Gundam Live-Action Movie Production has Begun

Gundam Live-Action Cast

Legendary Entertainment and Netflix, in partnership with Bandai Namco Filmworks, have officially announced the start of production of the live-action Gundam movie, the highly anticipated feature adaptation of the globally iconic franchise. Production began this month in Queensland, Australia. 

Written and directed by Jim Mickle, the new film stars Sydney Sweeney and Noah Centineo. The expansive cast also includes Jackson White, Shioli Kutsuna, Nonso Anozie, Michael Mando, Javon ‘Wanna’ Walton, Oleksandr Rudynskyi, Ida Brooke, Gemma Chua-Tran, and Jason Isaacs.

For over 47 years, Gundam has stood as the defining mech franchise: the original giant robot phenomenon that inspired a global multimedia movement. Now, it’s coming to life as an original live-action adventure that follows rival mech pilots fighting on opposing sides of a decades-long war between Earth and its former space colonies. As shifting allegiances and a growing threat set them on a collision course for one another, they’re pulled into a high-stakes race across the stars that could decide the fate of humanity. With awe-inspiring battles, intimate human emotion, and epic cinematic scale, this is Gundam like it’s never been seen before.

Gundam, which will be released by Netflix, is produced by Legendary Pictures in partnership with Bandai Namco Filmworks.

Mickle will produce with his partner Linda Moran through their company Nightshade, alongside Cale Boyter, Ali Mendes, Sydney Sweeney, Noah Centineo and Enzo Marc. Executive producers are Matthew Jenkins, Makoto Asanuma and Naohiro Ogata.
