The story follows the titular orphan Naruto Uzumaki, a young and trouble-making ninja who ultimately seeks recognition from his fellow ninjas as they embark on missions through a dangerous world filled with a magic energy that gives them special powers.
The news of Cretton being trapped to write and direct is the most we’ve heard about the project in a long while, but we still don’t know very much other than what we can presume is the basic plot. Thankfully, now that we know who’s helming it, it’s likely we’ll know more before long.
