Meryl: He Becomes Animal

Available · one owner only

Archive note

Japanese promotional poster for an unrealized 1970s spy-thriller imagining Christopher Walken as a shape-shifting operative who assumes animal forms during covert operations. The tagline—"彼は動物になる。" (He becomes animal)—suggests a film that blended live-action espionage with practical effects transformation sequences. The poster's oil-painted aesthetic and confident typography hint at a project greenlit but never completed, existing now only in archival traces and collector memory.
