Above is supposedly a leaked photo of Japanese actor Shun Oguri (Gokusen, Captain Harlock) in costume as the titular character in the upcoming live action film adaptation of the classic Monkey Punch manga and anime Lupin III. Oguri is said to have underwent 10 months of action training for the role, losing 8 kilograms (about 17.6 pounds).
The suit that Oguri wears in the said photo is similar to the one used in the Hayao Mizaki film "Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro". The photo originated from a Chinese site and its authenticity is currently in question.
Included in the main cast are Meisa Kuroki (Space Battleship Yamato, Crows Zero II) as Fujiko Mine, Tetsuji Tamayama (NANA, Casshern) as Daisuke Jigen, Gou Ayano (Rurouni Kenshin) as Goemon Ishikawa, and Tadanobu Asano (47 Ronin) as Detective KÅichi Zenigata.
Apart from having an original story, the live action Lupin III film will feature how the main characters met and form the team that we know now. The film is scheduled for Summer 2014 release.
