Jaume Collet-Serra, who is on board for directing 'Akira', has confirmed that production on the live-action film has been stalled.
Collet-Serra said he is going to take a break from filming after completing 'Run All Night' and 'Non-Stop', reported Aceshowbiz.
The news came a year after the film director confirmed he was working on the remake of 1988 Japanese film "Akira" for Warner Bros.

"A vacation! I truly will not make a decision on a movie for a few months because I've done these two movies in three years without any time off so I cannot wait for this movie to come out and just fade away," Collet-Serra explained further when referring to his desire to have some time off after filming "Non-Stop" and "Run All Night" back-to-back for the past three years.
When asked further if it's still possible for "Akira" to be developed, he answered, "It's a Warner Bros question.
