All You Need Is Kill is in development at Warner Bros. A script is approved, a director is attached, and now the hunt is on for an actor to play Keiji:
Of course, Hollywood being Hollywood, fidelity to the source text isn't exactly at a premium. Some months ago, Ryan Gosling was rumored to have received an offer! Well, at least he was young. Then,

Everyone loves Alison Pill, am I right?
