Robot Underdog is currently in progress of adapting the "Dragon Ball Z History of Trunks" timeline into a 3-part live action web series. We've spent quite a bit of time in the developmental phases to ensure that the story and characters are brought to life in a fashion that is true to the anime.
We feel that Dragon Ball Z has never truly been adapted correctly when brought to live action (we know most of you feel the same) and we're changing that. We plan on bringing the characters to life in a way that's never been attempted before while still staying true the the characters & the story.
We will use our web series as a pitch to FOX in hopes of being signed on to create more DBZ content and potentially a feature film.
The new web series has been written by none other than the foremost authority on all things Dragon Ball- Derek Padula, author of Dragon Ball Z “It’s Over 9,000!” When Worldviews Collide http://amzn.to/1f9VAyl and the upcoming book called “Dragon Ball Culture” http://bit.ly/1ehhkof
When reading the scripts you can literally feel the genuine personalities & feelings of the characters & while it is certainly an "adaptation" the core of the characters remains true.
Most of the main cast members have been announced - here are the announcement photos for Future Gohan, Kid Trunks, Android 18 & Android 17.
*We are still casting for Bulma & Future Trunks
