According to Warner Japan, Hideaki Anno will direct a live action movie of
Go Nagai's Cutey Honey. Eriko Satoh will star as Honey. Anno says the
concept is 'cool' and 'silly.' Shingo Sekine, director of advertising
department in Warner Japan, says "I hope the movie will be like Charlies
Angels, appealing to girls." Filming is to begin in July with the movie
being released next year. Another article

<boogle> Somehow I think that there will be a strong appeal <ahem> to *fan
service* unless Anno is kept on a tight leash.
