Gakuryu (Sogo) Ishii And Yu Irie Among Directors For ULTRA Q Revival
The series that kicked off the Ultraman franchise is returning to Japanese TV with some high profile directing talent at the helm.
The 1966 television series Ultra Q is where it all began for the hugely popular and enduring Ultra franchise and in 2013 the show will finally get a second season.
Tsuburaya Productions and Japanese broadcaster WOWOW have enlisted a number of feature film directors - among them cult giant Gakuryu Ishii (Crazy Thunder Road and Gojoe director Sogo Ishii's new nom de plume) and indie darling Yu Irie (8000 Miles) - to create the twelve episode Neo Ultra Q to air in 2013.
Personally I'm immensely curious to see how much of their unique styles the directors involved will be allowed to bring to the table. If any at all this could be a hugely diverse and entertaining series.
