Knights of the Zodiac has made its live-action debut through theaters overseas, and now it’s getting ready for its North American debut with a slate of cool new posters showing off the cast! Masami Kurumada’s Knights of the Zodiac action series is one of the most fondly recognized around the world, but inside the United States it’s a much different story. While the action franchise has its fans, it’s never gotten the same kind of traction that other prominent hits have had. But now that’s set to change as Knights of the Zodiac will be debuting a new live-action movie soon.

Knights of the Zodiac: What to Know
Tomek Baginski directs Knights of the Zodiac for Toei, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings’ Andy Cheng serves as stunt and fight coordinator, and Josh Campbell and Matt Stuecken (10 Cloverfield Lane) wrote the script. Starring the likes of Mackenyu, Famke Janssen, Madison Iseman, Diego Tinoco, Mark Dacascos, Nick Stahl and Sean Bean, Knights of the Zodiac is teased as such:
“Produced by Toei Animation and based on the international anime sensation, Knights of the Zodiac brings the Saint Seiya saga to the big screen in live-action for the first time. Seiya (Mackenyu), a headstrong street teen, spends his time fighting for cash while he searches for his abducted sister. When one of his fights unwittingly taps into mystical powers he never knew he had, Seiya finds himself thrust into a world of warring saints, ancient magical training and a reincarnated goddess who needs his protection. If he’s to survive, he will need to embrace his destiny and sacrifice everything to take his rightful place among the Knights of the Zodiac.”
