Mega Man’s film has long been in development with Chernin entertainment and rumors have long swelled about it moving to Netflix but can we definitively say Mega Man’s film will come to Netflix? The answer seems to be Rumors of Mega Man’s film jumping to Netflix have spinned for years. The IMDB page for Mega Man’s film has registered Netflix for some time but we don’t have the official word of the streamer so let’s compare everything we know so far.
For those who are not used to, Mega Man is one of the biggest games of Capcom who saw his first release in 1987 on the Nintendo Entertainment (NES) system. Dozens of release games later (and many other media formats too) franchises are still large to this day.
Mega Man Film History Let’s retreat a second because Mega Man’s film has been developed for some time Back in September 2015, Chernin Entertainment was installed on the Mega Man Live-Action project which will be released by FOX of the 20th century. Chernin Entertainment mainly works widely with the 20th century fox at this time Then it was announced that Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman were announced to write and direct projects. More about both in a second. In addition, further reports show that OKA will also produce and Mattson Tomlin will also be in the writing team.
In addition, Capcom said the film would be “adaptation that nurtured the world of Mega Man games while combining the value of the production and entertainment famous for Hollywood films This project has since been very calm because the initial announcement with work happens under the radar. Even thought that Disney canceled the project in 2019 after the acquisition of the 20th century fox It arrived April 2020 when it was announced that Chernin Entertainment signed a new contract with Netflix. It makes a lot to speculate the film will eventually move to Netflix. But again, radio silence to Mega Man until the end of that year.

In August 2020, Mattson Tomlin spoke with a brief polygon about Mega Man’s film which said it was still under development but did not mention where it would land. He said, however, that it would be “universal and primal and emotional and everyone can relate to” add “I was really excited about that script. I am very happy with what people will do and hopefully , there will soon be news about it Now, fast forward to December 2021, some Eagle-eyed fans have seen updates to the Super Marche website which is the site for a production company led by Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman.
The part that we most interested is part that says:
Henry, Rail, and manufacturer of In-House Orlee-Rose Strauss maintains the construction of active slate. Features in the work include: Adaptation of Mega Man Capcom for Chernin and Netflix entertainment, which they write and direct So it’s all but officially confirming we will see Mega Man coming to Netflix.
Everything else known about the Netflix Mega Man Movie
Moving Picture Company (MPC) registered between the effects of the company specifically for films at IMDB. Again, there is no official confirmation of their involvement outside they are listed here but it is noted they have done many projects where animation is included in real life shots. They have also worked at FX American Horror Story Will return to the Polygon interview, Matt Tomlin was asked whether the film would be like Sonic the Hedgehog (who also only received a live-action adaptation) where he answered I think something that children will like. I don’t want to say what our comps because it might betray a little too much, but it’s not right in the child area. But I don’t think that it is an Eith R-rated film
