This is an old story from 2011. Things may be different.
I can't judge Tarsem Singh as I saw only one film of his, IMMORTALS. I thought it was a very stylish film with an okay story.
So, while I'd love to see a live-action Samurai Jack, I would not say Singh would fit as director. I'd rather have Tartakovsky try a live-action version.

Tartakovsky doing a CGI/Animated film would be better.
As in, keep it 3D animated, but take something of a page from the Beowulf/Tintin movie and go for a 'stylized' CGI animation that isn't ultra-cartoonybut still has room for strong colors and 'animated' style imagery..don't do a CGI film and try to make it look completely like live action.
I think it could be pretty brilliant.and definitely go for a PG-13 rating, without a doubt.

Since Tartakovsky animated both of the Hotel Transylvania movies, I think he could do really well with remaking/extending the Samurai Jack universe. However, I do think that Samurai Jack could do really will as a live-action movie.
