Watch 1st trailer upcoming ‘Ghost in the Shell’ movie featuring Scarlett Johansson and Takeshi Kitano
(Video and photo via Paramount Pictures) The first trailer has hit the internet for the upcoming live action version of the anime/manga classic “Ghost in the Shell”. The film, directed by Rupert Sanders, stars Scarlett Johansson and famous Japans actor Takeshi Kitano.
The film follows Major, a special ops, one-of-a-kind human-cyborg hybrid, who leads the elite task force Section 9. Devoted to stopping the most dangerous criminals and extremists, Section 9 is faced with an enemy whose singular goal is to wipe out Hanka Robotic’s advancements in cyber technology.
The role of Scarlett Johansson has not come unnoticed as political correct activists accused the makers repeatedly of “whitewashing” the story. They even launched a petition calling for Johansson to be dismissed from the forthcoming remake. Luckily they just made themselves look stupid.

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
