Gundam is jumping back on the live-action scene once again and this time with big names attached to bring it to life.
This is not the first live-action feature of the mecha anime series. One was released back in 2000 under the title, G-Saviour and was produced by a Canadian company, Polestar Entertainment. However, with an IMDb rating of 3.9, it’s like it never happened at all.
