It might be one of the most popular anime series of all time, but Dragon Ball hasn't had much of a presence in the world of live-action. Lord knows Evolution was a disgrace to the source material, but the legendary series may be getting another shot at the silver screen courtesy of Disney.

We Got This Covered apparently recieved a tip from an anonymous source claiming that Disney, who gained the film rights to the franchise after their acquisition of 21st Century Fox, are planning on making a live-action reboot based on Goku & co. The source also claims that the movie will feature a significant budget and an all-Asian cast, so it's safe to assume it'll be more accurate to the original than the last movie.

It's easy to dismiss this as bullshit but it does seem kinda plausible in my eyes. Live-action anime adaptations are a bit of a trend in Hollywood at the minute; we've recently had western takes on Alita, Ghost in the Shell and Death Note (for better or worse) plus we've got a few to look forward to, including My Hero Academia, Akira and Cowboy Bebop. If Disney were to get in on the trend they'd do so with a bang, and a highly-regarded series like Dragon Ball will definitely get people talking. It's also worth mentioning that the same anonymous source leaked that the live-action Aladdin remake was happening before it was announced, but for now Disney's Dragon Ball is just a rumour.

What do you think of this rumour? Would Disney do Dragon Ball justice? Who would be your ideal cast? Let us know in the comments!
