The last descendants of an evil race of warriors known as the Saiyans are on a collision course with Earth, and Goku – the strongest fighter on the planet – is all that stands between humanity and extinction. To save his friends and the world he loves, Goku must travel to a realm from which few return, but should he survive, he’ll discover the power to face the villainous Saiyan warlord – Prince Vegeta.

Back in 2002, when 20th Century FOX announced that a live action Dragon Ball Z movie would soon be in production, a lot of fan material meant to promote the film surfaced on the internet. Many of this material usually used the quote “All They Need is Seven” in one way or another. The poster shown to the right is where that originated, and that certain piece even showed up in an article at IGN saying it could actually possibly be the work of FOX. They question whether or not they are already promoting the DBZ movie.

Here is an excerpt from IGN…

Ok, I really do not know where this came from (aside from fan material). But it seems a lot of people say Matt Mullins will be playing Vegeta in Dragnball 2 Reborn. Let me clarify this rumor. No one aside from the original cast that signed on to the sequels have been cast yet. 20th Century FOX has yet to even confirm that the sequel is in development, let alone who they cast for it. All this is really is just fan speculation. Now I have read somewhere that Matt Mullins said in an interview that he would like to play the role as Vegeta. But even if that is true, it still does not confirm anything. The sequel is just speculation, and will be until we get some confirmation. Even James Marsters has said it is only rumor that they will begin development soon for Dragonball 2 : Reborn (tentative title).

It has been confirmed. Everyone in the U.S. will get the chance to watch Dragon Ball Z Kai on television this spring. Here is an excerpt from the official press release.

Dragon Ball Z Kai, premiering on Nicktoons in May 2010, follows the last descendants of an evil race of warriors, known as the Saiyans, on their collision course with Earth. Goku–the strongest fighter on the planet–is all that stands between humanity and extinction and must face the villainous Saiyan warlord. Dragon Ball Z Kai is developed by Funimation Entertainment.

There have been numerous rumored reports stating that the Dragonball Evolution film will re-release into theaters. However, nothing is neither official or confirmed on this. But seeing how poorly DB Evolution did last year, this could be expected. If FOX does decide to re-release the film, I just hope they actually advertise it and maybe even add in a few cut scenes to make the movie slightly better. But if this does occur then it will prove that they just want to milk this movie even more. We will keep you all updated, and as always debunk this rumor if it turns out to be false.

Thanks to our user Iron Maiden, we have acquired a ton of new pictures from the set of Dragonball Evolution. This set mainly consists of Eriko Tamura as Mai, but also reveals a few interesting Lord Piccolo (James Marsters) images as well. These are the only new set pictures available at the moment, but if we get sent some more we will post them. Check out all the new DB Evolution set pictures after the break!

For those that missed out seeing this huge event live last year (in which we covered) can now check out a few clips of the premiere. The world premiere was held in Japan and was able to be seen live via MSN and Yahoo. The entire main cast showed up (Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Emmy Rossum, Chow Yun Fat, Jamie Chung, Joon park, Eriko Tamura and also the director James Wong) and the audience was filled with fans wearing Goku’s signature orange gi. Sadly these are the only clips available at the moment. If anyone else recorded the event themselves and would like to contribute them, please do so in the comments.

About a year back James Marsters told 411 Mania that the sequel has been green lit. This year he now says he has yet to hear any official word on the sequel to Dragonball Evolution, but hears rumors they might start up again.

Al Norton: Is there any word on a Dragonball sequel?

James Marsters: I haven’t heard anything officially. I’ve heard there are rumors we might start up again but nothing official so I am in ignorance but always at the ready.
