Wait, Cowboy Bebop is being remade, only live-action?

Was this known to everybody else? ““Cowboy Bebop,” a critically and commercially successful 1998 Japanese anime series, is set to be adapted into a live action television series by Tomorrow Studios, a partnership between ITV Studios and Marty Adelstein.” It’s entirely possible that I missed the memo — I get most of my anime info from my gaming group, and we’ve had scheduling issues this month — but I think that I’d have heard something about this before now. Particularly because of the term ‘live action.’ People might have, ah, opinions on that sort of thing.

I know, I know. Opinions on anime?  Strong ones? Perish the thought.
