Most fans assumed that Stephen Chow, writer and director of the surprisingly entertaining Kung Fu Hustle, had bitten off more than he could chew when he announced that he was producing a live-action adaptation of the popular Dragon Ball manga.

However, with direction by James Wong (The One, Final Destination 3) and the added star power of award-winning actor Chow Yun Fat (The Killer, Hard Boiled), the still-in-production film has many disbelievers raising an eyebrow.

It’s not surprising that fans were skeptical when even the actors involved with the project were trepidatious. James Marsters (“Spike” on Buffy and Angel), who plays the evil warrior Piccolo, posted this comment on his Website, JamesMarsters.com:

I'm not really allowed to talk about any of the movie details, but I can say that James Wong is obviously a gifted and insightful director! When I got the role I had doubts. The more I live with it I realize that I am going to rock this harder than I have anything in my life – I’m hungry for it.

The film also stars Justin Chatwin as Goku and Emmy Rossum (Poseidon) as Bulma

Dragonball is scheduled to be released August 15, 2008.
