After exiting Fast X, it didnt take Justin Lin very long to rev up another franchise. Hes set to direct One Punch Man for Sony Pictures. Scott Rosenberg & Jeff Pinkner, who teamed on Jumanji: The Next Level and Venom, are set to write the live-action film adaptation of worldwide hit manga series. Sony Pictures acquired the film rights from Shueisha.

Avi Arad and Ari Arad of Arad Productions (Spider-Man film series, Iron Man, X-Men film series, Venom) are producing the film. Lin also will be a producer and will work with the scribes on a rewrite with the intention to begin production by years end.

Hugely popular in both Japan and around the world, One Punch Man follows the story of Saitama, a superhero who can defeat any opponent with a single punch but seeks to find a worthy opponent after growing bored by a lack of challenges in his fight against evil. Think Mike Tyson. The studio is bullish on the concept as a franchise starter
.
I'm cautiously optimistic...

UE feels more and more like the transformation was something Toyo cooked up in 5 min to not make Vegeta feel behind in the transformation arms race with Goku.

The concept of a super powerful villain fighting off a bunch of heroes w/ new transformations and seeming totally unstoppable, only for Saitama to finally show up at the end and instantly kill him works fine in a 20 minute anime episode or manga chapters... but there is no way this will translate well into a 2 hour movie.

I cant see how this possibly translates well to live action, but I'll watch it regardless as I love OPM.

Better Luck Tomorrow was really good, and his FF movies were the best. It was when they brought James Wan on to replace him that the series went downhill.
