Grady Hendix had an article in Variety a few days ago about remakes of
various anime/manga titles:
http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117944091?categoryid=1019&cs=1

Mentioned in the list are Sailor Moon, Speed Racer, Neon Genesis
Evangelion, Battle Angel Alita, Pet Shop of Horrors, Witch Hunter
Robin, and Death Note. I've also heard that rumors that remakes are (or
were at one time) in the works for Dragonball, Akira, Kite, and Ninja
Scroll.

The only one done so far, according to the Variety article, is Death
Note. Which is, not suprisingly, a horror title.
