Horror manga Noah of the Blood Sea is getting a Hollywood film

Horror manga Noah of the Blood Sea is heading to the big screen. Los Angeles-based Tyrus Pictures is developing a feature film adaptation of Yu Satomi’s five-volume manga, published by Takeshobo, with production targeted to begin in 2027. The story follows passengers aboard a luxury cruise ship on what should be an idyllic voyage, blending supernatural horror, psychological suspense and survival-thriller elements as the trip turns monstrous. Michael Zelman and Hamid Mokhneche will produce for Tyrus Pictures, which optioned the film rights from Takeshobo. No director, screenwriter or cast has been announced yet. The manga has built a readership beyond Japan through translated editions in Europe, Latin America and Asia, and an English-language edition is planned for North America.
