That is gonna rule!
Will have to see it.
Kind of feel that she should be played by an Asian actress.....

I would have preferred Rinko Kikuchi just because she would be the fanboy choice, and I've seen other "fan casts" tossed about that are very spot on. Batou and Togusa are easily "castable" as caucasian, (even though Togusa is a Japanese cop) but The Major's hair goes back and forth between purple and black and at times blue, and also her body type in the first & third GITS film, to the anime, vary greatly. (not counting Arise simply because its an alternate continuity)
All I hope for is not a CGI mess that the "Ghost In The Shell: 2.0" (a version of the movie that added clashing CGI scenes and animation to the original film) was IMO.
I honestly hope a "Final Flight of The Osiris" treatment would be approached. MoCap is doing very well, and using that would certainly gloss over casting choices and might, might carry a weak script and concept adaptation,
