The live action evan­ge­lion movie is cur­rently under­go­ing the process of choos­ing a direc­tor. Until this stage has been com­pleted, no cast­ing or final script will be made. Accord­ing to Animé Tourist, Gainax have approved a short list of direc­tors. These direc­tors will be approached and when nego­ti­a­tion is com­plete, the rest of the movie will get under­way (the excit­ing stuff). Await an ADV press release in the com­ing months.
