A live-action film adaptation of the Beck manga was announced in 2009, with filming beginning in July.[1] It was produced and directed by Yukihiko Tsutsumi, who has directed manga to film adaptations in the past (most notably the 20th Century Boys trilogy). It stars Takeru Satoh as Koyuki, Hiro Mizushima as Ryusuke, Kenta Kiritani as Chiba, Aoi Nakamura as Saku and Osamu Mukai as Taira. The actors were given proper training on their instruments for the 30 original songs that were written for the film.[1]
