Columbia Pictures and Original Film are teaming to produce an English-language remake of helmer Hitoshi Matsumoto's "
Big Man Japan," a monster movie based on the Japanese comic.
Set in a world where giant monsters wreak havoc,
Big Man Japan protects the citizenry as the head of the Department of Monster Prevention. He uses electricity in order to grow so he can fight off the most menacing of monsters. The problem is that he's not very good at his job and often causes as much damage as he prevents, causing the public to mock him.
