Thor: Ragnarok Writer To Pen Premiere of Netflix's Cowboy Bebop

Well, the involvement of Shinichiro Watanabe instead of Keanu Reeves makes this attempt at live action Cowboy Bebop seem more promising, but... I still can't see it working.
 
I can't see anyone convincingly portraying Spike. Real Jeet Kun Do practitioners are rare enough as it is without having to find someone with the look and swagger.
 
I also think this is going to be make of break by the casting. This show is all about the cast and their interactions rather than an overarching narrative, so they need to hit it out the park.
