Remember?
Yeah. A shame it got canceled. Specially after all the hype it was starting to get and those teasers they showed at Comic-Con and all...
BUT HERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS, Everyone!
Japanese company Nikkatsu Studios are producing a live action version of Gatchaman for summer 2013!
Yeah!
A big budget Japanese live motion picture!
Honestly, it couldn't be better than that!
The movie will be directed by Toya Sato (live-action Grave of the Fireflies, Sexy Voice and Robo, Kaiji, Gokusen) will with a script by Yūsuke Watanabe (20th Century Boys, Gantz, Bloody Monday) and it will star.Tori Matsuzaka (.hack//The Movie, live-action Kyō, Koi o Hajimemasu, Samurai Sentai Shinkenger, Kamen Rider Decade) as Ken, the head of the eponymous team.
Gō Ayano (second-in-command Jō), Ayame Gōriki (explosive yoyo-wielding Jun), Tatsuomi Hamada (youngest member Jinpei), and Ryōhei Suzuki (main pilot Ryū) round out the cast.
Can’t wait!
Let's hope this one doesn't get canned....

You know what that means? Technically still not Gatchaman! I want the Gatchaman with their own gatchamanesque costumes LIVE, for real!
