Starship Troopers – a fantastic book by Robert Heinlein and an enjoyable movie by Paul Verhoeven. It was followed by a few not so good sequels and now there is a new one heading our way.
Fear not as Starship Troopers Invasion could turn out to be something quite special and here is the reason why.
Currently in production in Japan by Sola Digital Arts, Inc., and planned for a worldwide release in the Summer of 2012, this state-of-the-art CGI-animated feature is being directed by Shinji Aramaki, acclaimed director of the animated hits Appleseed, Appleseed Ex Machina and Halo Legends.
So a Japanese CG movie of Starship Troopers which means they can go where they want, show what they want and hopefully some really cool death by bug scene.
Here is the synopsis:
A distant Federation outpost Fort Casey comes under attack by bugs. The team on the fast attack ship Alesia is assigned to help the Starship John A. Warden stationed in Fort Casey evacuate along with the survivors and bring military intelligence safely back to Earth. Carl Jenkins, now ministry of Paranormal Warfare, takes the starship on a clandestine mission before its rendezvous with the Alesia and goes missing in the nebula. Now, the battle-hardened troopers are charged with a rescue mission that may lead to a much more sinister consequence than they ever could have imagined….
Unsurprisingly Casper Van Dien is involved as Executive Producer.
