You can check out a picture of Justin Chatwin as Goku from the upcoming Dragonball Z movie below.
I haven’t talked about this one much because frankly I was just never into the cartoon, but from what I’ve seen so far it looks like they’re really trying to capture the look of the characters (lots and lots of hair gel required, no doubt).

The movie is being directed by James Wong, and that’s about all I know about it. ![]()
I guess it’ll have lots of martial arts action in it, and it’ll be interesting to see if Wong tries to emulate the anime style of cinematography in a live action film. Of course we’ve seen how that might go over in Speed Racer’s box office numbers…
Thanks to “Roman” for the shout.
Dragonball Z opens on April 10, 2009.

The Matrix is my favorite movie and I know like that other guy said This movie could pass it if it’s made right but from the looks of it its not, but It’s probably going to be good, hopefully better than good though. I think Justin Chatwin doesnt look to much like a goku but o well if they do mess this up I’ll send a couple hate mails and that’s it.
This will so go down when the Japanese rise up to boycott it
There is not enough info to say it will or will not suck. All we have is a promise to make the film and some pics. When I say some pics I mean you could probably count all the pics on one hand. So we’ll have to wait patiently for the actual trailer to come out. I do agree that Chadwin is to scrawny for the roll but these are hype photos. Maybe he will bulk up for the roll. And apparently this is before he started to learn martial arts from Roshi. I know this plot is a little different from the original story but thank of it as an alternate dimension. That might help.
goku needs to be bigger
azn for goku instead of that ghetto white dude because goku is jap not white dude…azn ppl RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh wait im not trying to be races or anything but this is the truth
Pico i agree with you!!
Kinichiwa i agree with you guys or girls.
they should use the final fantasy dude named Cloud as Goku
Omg i cant belive it,in my dimension my fav dbz is awesome there i can imagine original anim faces.But here the hair looks no match and goku–> School,no sense and namekein ninjas.And his dress too am afraid it cant be happening :/
My bro san is right ,the fights in dbz anime are radical,super fast,ultimate screaming actions.while screaming all of them(foe & friends) looks really cool but a reall human screaming pose is really unwatchable(kinda looks funny)
maybe dbz must go on Anime rathar than this i wish :S
i agree with Rame! it cant be on other way then anime. a real human cant really make us feel like the way the way goku shows his power.
but it could be like 3d animation or something close it with high technology!
