Netflix's live-action version of the hit anime series Cowboy Bebop will be arriving on the streaming service on November 19. With this announcement of the premiere date, Netflix has released images from the upcoming show as well, and they look surprisingly good, which is refreshing as Netflix's history with live-action adaptations of anime series has been lackluster.

　　The look of an adaptation of an anime series is exceptionally important, and it looks like Cowboy Bebop has nailed it. Below, you can see the first images of Spike, played by John Cho (Searching). He has his signature blue suit with yellow shirt underneath, and yes, the headphones are there as well. Check out Cho and the rest of the cast below.

　　The original anime followed a group of bounty hunters who are "on the run from their pasts as they hunt down the solar system's most dangerous criminals," reads the official synopsis. "They'll even save the world…for the right price."

　　Cowboy Bebop has an impressive cast. In addition to Cho as Spike, it stars Mustafa Shakir (Luke Cage) as Jet Black, Danielle Pineda (Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom) as Faye Valentine, Alex Hassell (The Boys) as Vicious, Geoff Stults (12 Strong) as Chalmers, Tamara Tunie (Better Call Saul) as Ana, Mason Alexander Park (Acting for a Cause) as Gren, Rachel House (Thor Ragnarok) as Mao, Ann Truong (Romper Stomper) as Shin, and Hoa Xuande (Top of the Lake) as Lin.

　　The original anime ran in Japan for 26 episodes in 1998. In 2001, the series debuted on Adult Swim, and in the summer of 2001, Cowboy Bebop: The Movie was released. The upcoming show will also feature new music from the anime's original composer, Yoko Kanno.
