The legend comes to life.

Two thousand years ago, the Namekian demon Piccolo wreaked havoc on Earth, and seven mystics managed to seal him away with a spell called Mafuba. Now the seal is breaking, and the villain returns with Mai, his ninja henchwoman, with one clear goal: to gather the seven Dragon Balls and eliminate anyone who crosses his path. Meanwhile, young Goku, who doesn't know much about his past, begins to discover who he really is and what role awaits him in this threat. Directed by James Wong, the film stars Justin Chatwin in the lead role.

Trivia about Dragonball Evolution

The first application of Piccolo's makeup took seventeen hours and left James Marsters struggling to breathe.

Ron Perlman was the first choice to play Lord Piccolo, but turned down the role to work on Hellboy 2: The Golden Army.

Figures of $100 and $50 million dollars were reported at one point, but Marsters later claimed the film cost $30 million.

Akira Toriyama, creator of Dragon Ball, said in 2013 that the result was a movie he couldn't call Dragon Ball.

The adaptation kept the manga's futuristic cities and flying vehicles, but dropped the anthropomorphic creatures and talking animals such as Tortuga, Oolong and Puar.

The entire film was shot in Mexico: the urban scenes were filmed in Mexico City, and the rest, including exteriors in Durango, was shot in that state.

Joon Park said that, before landing the role of Yamcha, he asked to appear as an extra in a scene, even if it meant playing a worker cleaning up manure.

The film was nominated for 2009 Scream Award in the best comic book movie category but lost to "Watchmen."
