Judgment actor will reportedly star in a live-action TV series | VGC

Television spin-off has reportedly been signed by Japan’s Asahi TV…

That's according to a report by Japanese publication Nikkan Gendai – spotted by Kotaku – which claims that actor Takuya Kimura plans to adapt the action-RPG series into a show for Asahi Television called "The Unjudged".

It's also claimed that a live-action movie adaptation for Judgment could be in development alongside the TV project.

Kimura is a recognised television actor and celebrity in Japan and appeared as the Sega game's protagonist in both of its video game instalments.

If true, the report is the first indication that Kimura intends to maintain his involvement with the Judgment franchise beyond last year's game sequel.

Curious to see Kimura switching combat styles mid action.

I wouldn't bank on that. As far as I know, the beef between his agency and Sega hasn't been solved.

But if he wants to do more Yagami, it is solvable

I think SEGA is really pissed becuse the agency don't let them port the game to PC, hence the game losing sales.

I wouldn't count on a thrid installment, at least not with the same MC.

SEGA please move on , this IP is disappointing. Let RGG studio create a new ip.

Nothing wrong with Judgment games. Lost Judgment probably had the best antagonist RGG has ever made.

Both games had good stories but 1st one was super good. Would totally be down to watch the story in live action.

Judgement bout to turn these gamers into J-Drama addicts.
