NHK has announced a live-action version of Futatsu no Spica (Twin Spica), set to premiere June 11.

The main character, Kamogawa Asumi, will be played by 16-year-old Sakuraba Nanami. I've never seen her act before, but she is a good visual match for the part:



The Japanese space agency JAXA is consulting on the project. They did a good job helping out Rocket Girls a while back, so that's a great sign.

And for those of you who read Japanese, here's the official NHK announcement: http://www.nhk.or.jp/dramatopics-blog/5000/17533.html
