Trends can change on a dime, and the best chance for it to get made would be if Pacific Rim is a big hit. Hollywood likes to try to replicate the success of previous hits so another project about giant robots fighting off alien invaders would be given a boost.

Of course, this is subject to any legal issues being ironed out.

Heck, the Sayaka and Kyoko arc is basically an evangelical tale of sin and damnation, with the ending being a passion play.
Hollywood isn't going to see any money in any of this, so none of these projects are going to see much (if any) money. Taiwan and Korea are interested in shows pairing off pretty boys with pretty girls, so you won't see much interest there either. The most likely adaptations is probably a cheap Japanese TV show.
