As reported by ScreenAnarchy back in May, prolific Japanese director Takashi Miike's new film will be a movie adaptation of the hugely popular Nintendo GBA and DS game franchise, PHOENIX WRIGHT: ACE ATTORNEY (original title: GYAKUTEN SAIBAN). Those who have played the game would know that it involves intense courtroom battles between the attorney and the prosecutor, where they have to present evidence, cross-examine witnesses and detect any contradictory statements that may hold the key to the case.
The cast includes Hiroki Narimiya (NANA 1 & 2) playing defence attorney Phoenix Wright, Mirei Kiritani as Maya Fey the sister of Wright's boss, and Takumi Saito (ROBOGEISHA, VAMPIRE GIRL VS FRANKENSTEIN GIRL) as prosecutor Miles Edgeworth. The film will be released in Japan in February 2012.
