Kamen Rider Black was one of the most popular series in the franchise, especially among the Showa-era (1926-1989) productions. First aired in 1987, the series starred stepbrothers Kohtaro Minami and Nobuhiko Akizuki, who are kidnapped by the evil Gorgom cult. The brothers are subjected to cyborg surgery to turn them into future “Century Kings,” destined to battle for supremacy and become “Creation King.” Kohtaro manages to escape before the cult completes its brainwashing, and takes on the mantle of Kamen Rider Black to defeat the cult and save his stepbrother.

Kamen Rider Black Sun takes its name from “Black Sun,” the cult’s code name for Kohtaro (Nobuhiko was code-named “Shadow Moon”). The series will be directed by Kazuya Shiraishi, who directed the films The Blood of Wolves and The Devil’s Path, among others. Shiraishi also directed episodes of Netflix series Hibana: Spark. According to the official site and press release, the series will be a “new interpretation of a story steeped in the pathos of the hero’s harsh fate” and be crafted to appeal to adults.

Wait, this will be an anime?

This will be even better if they do a closer adaptation of the KR Black manga. The manga really doesn't pull punches.

No such thing has been announced, no. Most people are assuming it will be live action, like the original.

That's what I thought. I see the thread has been moved to the right section.
