A Samurai Jack movie is still in the works says Genndy Tartakovsky
"I've been trying so hard every year, and the one amazing thing about Jack is that I did it in 2001, you know, and it still survived. There's something about it that's connected with people. And I want it, it's number 1 on my list, and now Bob Osher, the President (of Digital Production at Sony Picture Entertainment), is like 'Hey, let's talk about Jack. Let's see what we can do.' And I go, 'You're going to do a 2D feature animated movie?' and he's like, 'Yeah. Maybe. Let's do some research and let's see.' So it's not dead for sure by any means, and it's still on the top of my list, and I'm trying as hard as I can."
The Samurai Jack TV series aired on Cartoon Network from 2001 to 2004, centering on a lone warrior who journeys through time to save the universe from an evil demon known as Aku. It isn't known if Genndy Tartakovsky will direct the feature, although if Hotel Transylvania is a hit, don't be surprised to hear more about this project in the coming months.
Samurai Jack is in development .

There were so many things right with this show, it'd be a crime not to give it its proper ending. Samurai Jack was a critical success, so why are studios not frothing at the mouth to pick this up!?

They decide to make the crappy movie first and then the potentially good movie, the crappy movie doesn't do good because it's crap and use that as an excuse to shelve the good movie. That's what's gonna happen.

@the-movieghost Indeed. He needs to add another season to the show. I didn't not appreciate the way it ended.
