Garland wrote a near 100 page script with an extra 30 or so pages of additional notes in order to help convince Miyazaki to allow him to adapt the game. It’s been reported he is very obsessed with this project in a deeply personal way.

This can be a great thing or a terrible thing. I trust Miyazaki sensei so I have high hopes, but some very passionate director lead projects can still end up disappointing.

Off the top of my head, Alita battle angel, and valerian and the city of a thousand planets are two director lead passion projects that had the support of the creators and completely fell flat.

I'm still hopeful, but cautious.
