One-Punch Man debuted as an anime in 2015. It tells the story of Saitama, an overpowered hero who can defeat any enemy with just a single punch. However, he eventually grew bored of his immense power. He then set on a quest to find a worthy opponent that could handle his colossal strength.

In 2020, Sony Pictures announced that they were also developing a live-action adaptation of the hit series. The project would be led by Venom writers Scott Rosenberg and Jeff Pinker, with Spider-Man’s Avi Arad as producer.

The series started out as a webcomic created by ONE in 2012. Then, ONE and Yusuke Murata remade the series and released it on Shueisha’s “Tonari no Young Jump” website. After a few years, it was adapted into an anime under the direction of Shingo Natsume. – with reports from Bea Bertuldo/Rappler.com
