Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed I think if you actually did it well, you could blend all the elements and backstory in. For instance, say that Spike is effectively hiding out on the Bebop and one of Jet's old police contacts rats out their location to the syndicate. Have Faye forced into working for Vicious because she's promised all she neeRAB to pay off her massive debt.

Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed I think a bounty of the week type movie would work best. Spike's story is pretty much the backbone of the series, and I think trying to re-hash it in live action is kind of durab, not to mention taking on too much. :B
Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed well for one thing...it isn't sunrise kicking fox's respect butt its bandai...and if you mess with bandai and improperly adapt the movie, they will sue...and to further echo on gwotaku's point regarding the adaptation, I think it will be okay...I actually wouldn't mind a la fou or mushroom saraba to be adapted though =P and speaking of characters, what about ed and ein???

Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed Read what I wrote. Your point has been answered.
Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed Based on what? How is Sunrise going to kick their asses? How can they take on Fox? I don't see Shonen and Toriyama kicking their asses over Dragonball. No he can't. Looking the part is not enough.
Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed If it's gonna be more than movie, the smart thing to do would be to break it up episodically. Do a focu piece for the main trio and end with "Ballad". There can be subtle references to the other characters ongoing plots but it remains very much character driven. Repeat for the sequel only end it at "Real Folk Blues."
Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed I'd rather it not be Spike-centric. I'd like to see more back stories on Fay and Jet too, that way other people can enjoy the full story with just the movie. I know several people that haven't seen Cowboy Bebop, but would go watch the movie (most just because of Keanu Reeves).
Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed I would completely agree, with a good enough script that should be the most sensible way to approach the subject matter and leave it at that. But it's still up in the air whether the powers that be really want to make a single powerful film and not just one more adventure in a parallel Cowboy Bebop universe, to see how it goes without ruling out a potential sequel.
Live-Action Cowboy Bebop Writer Peter Craig Interviewed Personally, I think Bebop would work best as a single film. It's different for a TV show but Spike's story is ultimately simple and direct. Telling it in a single focussed film will make it stronger.
