News Get Jiro Anthony Bourdain’s Get Jiro! Is Becoming an Adult Swim Animated Series Violent, sexy food stories in cartoon form. By Molly Templeton | Published on June 18, 2024 Comment 0 Share New Share Over a decade ago, chef/writer/TV host/generally excellent guy Anthony Bourdain co-wrote a graphic novel with Joel Rose. Drawn by artist Langdon Foss, Get Jiro! is set in a near-future Los Angeles, where people literally do murders for seats at the hottest restaurants. Seriously. Here’s what the summary says: In a not-too-distant future of food-obsessed L.A., where master chefs rule the town like crime lords and people literally kill for a seat at the best restaurant, Jiro, a renegade and ruthless sushi chef arrives in town with strong ideas of his own. It’s a bloody culinary war of epic proportions, and in the end, no chef may be left alive! In 2015, Bourdain told Eater, “To be able to go back to my teenage years and do a comic book—especially a really violent, sexy, food-oriented one—it’s an unfinished or unrealized dream.” Get Jiro! is now coming to a small screen near you: The Hollywood Reporter has the news that Adult Swim has ordered an animated series adaptation of the graphic novel. Creators Brian Gatewood and Alessandro Tanaka were both writers and producers on the series Superstore, and co-wrote the movie Sharper. The animated Get Jiro! will be a half-hour show, but no further details, such as number of episodes or voice cast, have been announced.[end-mark] The post Anthony Bourdain’s <i>Get Jiro!</i> Is Becoming an Adult Swim Animated Series appeared first on Reactor.
