Celebrated for his influential body of work that includes "Cowboy Bebop," "Samurai Champloo" and "Kids on the Slope," "Lazarus" marks Watanabe's return to the sci-fi action genre with a globe-trotting thriller set in the near future. Produced by anime studio MAPPA, "Lazarus" will feature high-octane action with sequences meticulously designed by Chad Stahelski, renowned stuntman and director of the "John Wick" film franchise, and brought to the screen by Watanabe. Additionally, as many familiar with Watanabe's oeuvre will expect, "Lazarus" will also feature a captivating score by a collection of renowned jazz and electronic artists including jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington (West Coast Get Down); producer, DJ, and musician Floating Points (Floating Points Ensemble); and producer, DJ, and musician Bonobo. |
