Cyborg 009 (film)

Cyborg 009 is a live-action science-fiction/action film distributed by Columbia Pictures and Revolution Studios. It will be released sometime in 2021. It is based on Shotaro Ishinomori's manga of the same name.
== PLOT: ==
Eight normal humans (Ivan Wachov from Russia, Jason Landers from the U.S., Françoise Arnoul from France, Albert Heinrich from Germany, Geoff Strongbear from the U.S., Chuck Chang from China, Gary Barb from the United Kingdom, and Pyunma from Kenya) were hand-picked, hunted down, manipulated, kidnapped, and modified into cyborgs by the mysterious terrorist organization Black Ghost. Joe Shimamura from Japan, who is helping Dr. Issac Gilmore research on a cybernetics project, also tries to escape Black Ghost, but was too kidnapped and surgically-enhanced into a cyborg. Like the other cyborgs, Joe was forced to serve as Black Ghost's new breed of warfare, but refuses and escapes. With Ivan, Jason, Gary, and Pyunma on his side, it's up to Joe to round up the other four cyborgs as they all must prepare to rebel against Black Ghost and save humanity.

==DIFFERENCES FROM THE MANGA:==
The original names Ivan Whisky, Jet Link, Geromino Jr., Chuck Chang, and Great Britain were changed to Ivan Wachov, Jason Landers, Geoff Strongbear, Chuck Chang, and Gary Barb repectively, to make them more realistic. Great Britain is still Gary Barb's nickname in the film.
