Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop Unveils First Clip of Ed, Addresses Fan Speculation


Netflix addressed rumors that fan-favorite Cowboy Bebop character Radical Ed would not appear in the live-action adaption by posting a new clip.

Netflix finally revealed the first footage of Radical Ed in its live-action Cowboy Bebop series, putting to rest months of speculation that the character was absent from the show.

The brief clip, posted to the Netflix Geeked Twitter page, shows newcomer Eden Perkins as Radical Ed. They waltz around a dimly lit alley, swaying in the shadows and splaying their arms wide before quickly waving at the camera and disappearing into the night. It’s a cryptic tease, one that barely reveals the character’s design. The live-action Ed appears to be kitted with their trademark white shirt and green backpack but more minute details can’t be made out.

“To everyone who’s been asking “Where’s Ed?” — you don’t have to wait any longer. Introducing newcomer Eden Perkins (they/them), who plays the role of Radical Ed in Netflix’s Cowboy Bebop, now streaming,” reads the tweet which accompanied the clip. While fans of the anime will undoubtedly be pleased to know that Ed is indeed in the live-action series, they shouldn’t expect the character to take up plenty of screentime.
