That’s dope

good for breh, he was killing it on Atlanta

 

[Morose Polymath]

This is dope. Yasuke was one of Nobunaga's loyal retainers. They depicted him in the Nioh series as the Obsidian Samurai and he was ill.

With Chadwick passing away, are they still doing the live-action with a recast?

Damn..... this is the role Chadwick wanted and was suppose to play (or atleast the live action version)

Think that was a separate thing. Can't remember what movie studio was attached. Pretty sure it wasn't Netflix though.
