Back in May of 2014 we saw a pretty impressive fan-made trailer for a live action Akira movie titled The Akira Project.
The trailer was made by Nguyen-Anh Nguyen, who’s back with a new cyberpunk short film titled Temple. The short is a concept that was made with the hope that it will one day become a feature film.

Temple is a concept short film for a science-fiction cyberpunk thriller, helmed by the same team that produced The Akira Project, a crowd-sourced, live-action trailer based on the manga AKIRA, released in May 2014. It garnered over 3 million views online and received wide media coverage by Wired, The Creators Project, /Film, Mashable, amongst many others. The director, Nguyen-Anh Nguyen, is now developing TEMPLE as his first long form project, basing himself on everything he loves; dystopian sci-fi, cyborgs and martial arts with a touch of manga thrown in for good measure. Supported again by a talented global production crew, we recently shot a short film to be launched online in mid-2015, which will serve as a proof of concept for the financing of the feature film.
You can follow the project at its Facebook page.
