, known as Kang from MCU, has become a fan favorite to play Fourth Raikage.
– Critiques of Sakura Haruno’s character underscore the importance of strong character development.

The anime-adaptation trend has taken the world by storm, thanks to Netflix’s wildly successful live-action rendition of Eiichiro Oda’s One Piece. This success paves the path for other beloved Japanese anime series to enter the realm of live-action. Draws are inevitably shifting to the popular Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto, with eagerly awaiting the live-action movie.

An Eager Wait for Naruto’s Live-Action Movie

News about the Naruto live-action movie has been circling for a few years, sparking anticipation among fans worldwide. Manga creator Masashi Kishimoto has been open about his desire to see a live-action film of his work, intensifying the pressure on selected director Destin Daniel Cretton to deliver a film worthy of fan expectations.

Choices Stir Buzz Among Fans

As fans await news of casting decisions with bated breath, one star’s name has stood out among the rest: Jonathan Majors, known for his villainous role as Kang in MCU. Majors, who has worked on popular series like HBO’s Lovecraft Country and the highly anticipated III now seems to hold more attraction for fans than even Dwayne Johnson for the role of Fourth Raikage.

A Playwright for Fourth Raikage

Fourth Raikage, also known as A, has a pivotal part later in the series. Therefore, director Cretton has reasonable time to select the perfect fit for this crucial character. Jonathan Majors’ potential inclusion would bring a fresh aura to the anticipated movie, especially after his departure from Marvel. Fans are excited about watching either Majors or Johnson portraying Fourth Raikage, known for his powerful Lightning Release Chakra Mode.

The Sakura Haruno Debate Continues

While casting speculation is rife, there’s an equally important discussion about the character development of Sakura Haruno. A central character from the anime, she’s faced backlash from fans due to Masashi Kishimoto’s portrayal of her emotional fixation with Sasuke Uchiha. Critics argue that she could have been a more respected character if she’d followed the example set by her mentor, Fifth Hokage.

Being under Fifth Hokage’s mentorship, Sakura could have learnt to manage her feelings for Sasuke better, potentially earning her a more favourable perception among fans. If she had channelled her energy into becoming a formidable leader like her mentor, Sakura’s story arc could have vested her character with deeper substance and wider admiration.

Final Thoughts

The Naruto live-action adaptation is set to follow the wave of successful anime adaptations, with its intricate characters and captivating storyline. As the project progresses, the excitement among fans is palpable, especially with Jonathan Majors’ potential casting as Fourth Raikage. While character development debates continue to thrive, one thing is certain— the Naruto live-action movie will undoubtedly keep fans on the edge of their seats.

Naruto fans worldwide can binge-watch the anime series on while waiting for more updates on the live-action adaptation.
