Blazing Samurai (Arc Productions)

Blazing Samurai was originally going to be distributed by Arc Productions.

Plot
The plot would be the same as the upcoming film.

Why It Was Cancelled

 * 1) The reasons are unknown, but the movie itself has a troubled, shady and complicated history. It was first announced in 2015 that Mass Animation (then known as GFM Animation) was originally on board to work on the film and that Arc Productions provived a chunck of work via crowdsourcing, which would have been the first animated film to do so, but in 2016, Arc Productions closed their doors permanently as they are unable to pay employee wages due to a "glitch in the system", and Mass Animation hasn't updated their website since 2010, and they are possibly disbanded.

Result

 * As a result of this, is unknown if Blazing Samurai will resurface beyond a tentative 2021 release date. Is 2022 now, and that date was silently delayed to July 22nd.
 * In February 2021, Rob Minkoff and Mark Koetsier replaced Chris Bailey as director and more production companies such as Aniventure and Huayi Brothers took over Mass Animation, with Open Road Films and Sony Pictures International replacing Arc Productions as distributors, but as of 2022, Paramount announced that they will be the distributors of the movie rather than Sony.
