Koete Report post Posted June 30, 2011 TOKYO -- Warner Japan will make a live-action pic based on Nobuhiro Watsuki's hit samurai swashbuckler comic ''Rurouni Kenshin.'' Takeru Sato will star as the title character Kenshin Himura, a samurai who vows to end his bloody career as an assassin and wander the country protecting the weak. The pic is skedded to start shooting in July with a 2012 release penciled in. Warner is also releasing.
