It is scheduled to air in December, 3 months from now. Anime News Network stories here and here.
Yui Aragaki will be playing Akane. Female Ranma will be played by Natsuna, and Kento Kaku will be playing male Ranma. The second link above has more casting information, including the fathers.
The official page at NTV for the production can be found here. It has pics of all the confirmed cast, and I have to say, Natsuna seems perfect. Rumiko Takahashi appears to be involved with the production, which is always a good sign.
I can only hope that the fansubbers are gearing up for this one -- but I wouldn't be surprised if Viz already has a lock on bringing it across the Pacific.
