The live-action adaptation’s version of Alphonse Elric has not been revealed yet, and director Fumihiko Sori (live-action Ping Pong) said that he could not yet release the details about him at the moment, but he has said that he is quite confident that the fans will accept him. He has also revealed that he wants to stay loyal to the source material as much as possible, as the filming will finally begin next month in Italy.
So what do you guys think of the cast? And are you excited that they would stay loyal to the manga?
