Spike Spiegel and the gang’s jump to live-action is coming soon.
During the second day of Geeked Week, Netflix announces that the live-action Cowboy Bebop series is set to premiere in the fall. Yoko Kanno, the anime’s original composer, is also returning to score music for the adaptation.
“There’s no Bebop without Yoko,” Netflix says in the teaser video. She’s the brilliant mind behind the original show’s iconic theme song, Tank!, which the cast is seen grooving to.
