Warner Bros. has acquired the rights to produce a live action Robotech film from rights holder Harmony Gold, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Spider-Man star Tobey Maguire will produce through Maguire Entertainment and may take the top role. A script has been ordered from Craig Zahler, who has no produced scripts to his credit.
This is the second live action giant robot film announced since Transformers' debut last summer. A Voltron film is also in pre-production (see 'Voltron Movie Close').
