Fan Casting Mobile Suit Gundam Live Action Trilogy

Set in the year of 0079 of the Universal Century, a young boy becomes involved in a large scale conflict between two opposing forces - the democratic Earth Federation and the authoritarian Principality of Zeon. With little left to lose, and with a prototype mech known as the Gundam under his control, he joins with a unexperienced crew in order to survive through the war. The trilogy is envisioned as a remake of the original 1979 anime series, with certain events moved around or changed in order to facilitate a new structure. The series is ripe for a Hollywood adaptation due to it's non-Japanese centric cast and instantly recognizable premise and look, and as thus will be casted as such.
