#’Cowboy Bebop’ Delves Into the Heroes’ Pasts & Expands on the Anime Series
“#’Cowboy Bebop’ Delves Into the Heroes’ Pasts & Expands on the Anime Series”
“They are always in search of that next score that they can get in chasing down criminals and cashing in bounties,” explains Cowboy Bebop showrunner André Nemec, who promises layered backstories for our heroes. “The characters have deep histories, and there is a real component of how the past catches up to you, no matter how fast you try and outrun it.”
Nemec’s live-action take on the late-1990s Japanese anime series of the same name tells a fresh, all-new adventure. “My feeling [about] adaptations is you don’t want to serve the same meal,” he continues. Instead, Nemec mined the original series’ cinematic influences—everything from The Maltese Falcon to the Lethal Weapon franchise—for themes and ideas. “For us, it was about continuing to expand on the stories,” he says.
Don’t be surprised if you find yourself tapping your feet too: Original series composer Yoko Kanno returns to score the show with saxophone interludes, Latin-infused big-band numbers and even hard rock. The soundtrack, says Nemec, is “a huge element.” Bebop is a sensory overload…in a wonderful way.
Cowboy Bebop, Series Premiere, Friday, November 19, Netflix
