Del Toro developing 'Monster' for HBO

Always have thought that Monster could work very well as live action, provided it got a series format. And the del Toro/HBO partnership might just be ideal to get this right. I hope it get's greenlighted and if not, that it at least develops enough of a buzz for Viz or someone else to release the entirety of the anime series on DVD.

I admire Del Toro's work but this would be a really hard one to pull off. HBO is also the perfect choice as well, not sure regular network TV would be able to do it justice.

Check this short interview with him out. He's really commited to make this right and to make Urasawa happy with his adaption.
