But recently, Netflix made a hopeful statement about a forgotten MHA projectand it is MHA live action movie. This film was announced seven years ago, and now, finally, more work is being done on this project. It has even been confirmed that the script for the film is being worked on.

“I'm in the middle of writing it right now, so we haven't gotten to the casting part of it yet,” – Jason Fuchs

This is definitely good news for fans and could be big for a full-fledged MHA live-action adaptation in the future, similar to what is happening with One Piece right now.

  • No release date has been set yet

  • Production is still in very early stages

Hate it or love it, a live-action MHA might be one of the only projects that fans of the series will be able to look forward to in the coming years. Live-action anime series have a bad reputationbut Netflix has shown that it doesn't have to be so bad with the latest live-action One Piece, which, while not perfect, isn't bad at all.

“There is no treatment, there are no outlines, there are no scenes, there is nothing that Kōhei does not make notes on, react to [with] thumbs up, thumbs down. It makes me feel really confident that we're going to deliver something that fans, like myself, feel good about. You want to do something that feels true to the material. You want to do something that the fans feel respects the canon and the original, but also find an access point for people who have never read [the manga]who have never seen the first films.” – Jason Fuchs

Anyway, with the film project My Hero Academia after being announced seven years ago, fans are hoping it will come out soon, but the truth is that it will likely still be a while. The project is still in the very early stages. The script is being written right now, and the actors haven't even been cast yet.

This could take at least two years or maybe even more, and that is if there are no delays and problems in production. Fans definitely shouldn't expect much from the project until 2027at least.

The My Hero Academia manga ended. The story contains 431 chapters for fans to read. All these chapters are available on Manga Plus. As for the anime, this series is still waiting for its final season, which will be released later this year. The series can be seen on Crunchyroll.
