This site has production notes on Takashi Miike's Sukiyaki Western Django along with some photos:

I want to see this. Unfortunately, it's probably not going to play anywhere in my town, so I'll probably have to wait for the DVD (coming November 11) to see it (unless I can manage to make a quick trip to Austin sometime and see it at the Alamo Drafthouse if they're showing it).

Interestingly enough, the story is partially based upon the battle between the Heike and Genji clans that was depicted in Grasscutter.

Here's a trailer:

I like that it includes a Japanese cover of the theme song from Sergio Corbucci's Django:

Does anyone know if this is the theme music from Sukiyaki Western Django?

It looks pretty wild. I had never heard of this. Is that a Michelle Yeoh immediately after the Tarantino cameo?

According to the IMDB, no.
