Anime adaptations by Hollywood

Having hardtime finding original subject matter, it seems Hollywood isn't satisfied with book,video game and comics adaptations and remakes of the foreign and old movies so now they decided to also make anime/manga adaptations. For reference I made a list of live action anime adaptations currently in production or planning by Hollywood.So here it goes:

Akira
Battle Angel Alita
Bleach
Cowboy Bebop
Death Note
Ghost in the Shell
Kite
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Ninja Scroll
Paprika
Paradise Kiss (joint project with Japan)
Pluto
Robotech
Rurouni Kenshin (joint project with Japan)
Space Adventure Cobra
Star Blazers
Voltron

The live action anime adaptations made by Hollywood so far :

Dragonball Evolution
Fist of the North Star
Guyver 1-2
Priest
Speed Racer

Crying Freeman was also made and it was really good, if you can find it on DVD I highly recommend it.

Mark DeCascos starred in it.

Thanks for reminding but Crying Freeman wasn't made by Hollywood.It's a French-Canadian joıint production and never saw a U.S. release.

The Neon Genesis Evangelion movie currently seems to be in development hell but I will add it to the list thanks for reminding .Latest news about the movie is that " Its release is currently projected to occur at any time ranging from as early as 2009 to as late as 2015".Battle Angel Alita movie will be fully 3-D and is being produced and directed by James Cameron so it's bound to be good.
