So I think it's good to let people use their imaginations." Faye Valentine Voiced by: Megumi Hayashibara (Japanese) Wendee Lee (English) Portrayed by: Daniella Pineda įaye Valentine ( フェイ・ヴァレンタイン, Fei Varentain) is one of the members of the bounty hunting crew in the anime series Cowboy Bebop. In the past, people watching my shows have come up with better ideas than my original intention for the story. If I say something in an interview that tends to make it official so I try to avoid a definite answer. Just because I put something there does not mean they have to believe it. In a May 2013 interview, director Shinichiro Watanabe stated "I want the audience to interpret it however they want to.
Spike does go from seeing his beloved and recently departed Julia with his left eye, the eye that sees his past to seeing her with his right eye, the eye that sees his present. In the final episode, Spike kills Vicious and collapses afterward, but his fate after the battle has never been officially confirmed. He is also a talented pilot in his personal fighter, the Swordfish II, a modified racer. The purpose of this cybernetic eye is never explicitly stated, though it apparently gives him exceptional hand–eye coordination – particularly with firearms (Spike's gun of choice is a Jericho 941, as seen throughout the series).
As said by Spike himself in the last episode, his right eye "only sees the present" and his left eye "only sees the past". A recurring device throughout the entire show is a closeup on Spike's fully natural left eye before dissolving to a flashback of his life as part of the syndicate. He is usually dressed in a blue lounge suit, black skinny tie, with a yellow shirt and Lupin III-inspired boots.Ī flashback in Session 6 revealed that his apparently fully functioning right eye was surgically replaced by a cybernetic one (although Spike himself may not have conscious recollection of the procedure since he claims to have lost his natural eye in an "accident"). He has fluffy, blackish green hair (inspired by Yūsaku Matsuda's role as Shunsaku Kudō in Tantei Monogatari) and reddish brown eyes, one of which is artificial and lighter than the other. The inspiration for Spike's martial arts is found in Bruce Lee, who uses the style of Jeet Kune Do as depicted in Session 8, "Waltz for Venus".
He is often depicted with a cavalier attitude, but occasionally shows signs of compassion when dealing with strangers. Spike has a history of violent activity, seen through flashbacks and dialogue with the Red Dragon Syndicate. Spike Spiegel ( スパイク・スピーゲル, Supaiku Supīgeru) is a tall, lean, and slightly muscular 27-year-old bounty hunter born on Mars. Star Trek and The Twilight Zone star Cho definitely has the chops to nail Spike's haggard heroism while Shakir has all the charisma needed to lead the team - all while Pineda delivers the non-stop sass Faye requires.Main article: Spike Spiegel Voiced by: Kōichi Yamadera (Japanese) Steve Blum (English) Portrayed by: John Cho Black is the gruff, tough, soft-hearted ex-cop of the bunch while Valentine is as wild a card as they come. The show, which will presumably boast the original’s incredible theme song, had fans worried about whitewashing, but avoided that particular pitfall: John Cho is leading the team as the incomparable space cowboy Spike Spiegel.Īccording to a release, Cho will bring the gunslinging and Jeet Kune Do-wielding character to life alongside his captain Jet Black - played by Luke Cage’s Bushmaster himself, Mustafa Shakir - and unlikely crewmate Faye Valentine, played by Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom’s Daniella Pineda. Cowboy Bebop is heading to Netflix, with the jazzy sci-fi amping up its scruffy, Firefly-esque bounty hunting with some killer stars. One of the best anime series of all time is getting the live-action treatment - and its first casting news is a bullseye.
