    No mention of a release date?

    Anime? That's a left field choice all round. Obviously there's the mega budget Amazon show on the way but I'd never have thought the next film might be animated.

    Next thing you know they'll be rotoscoping...

    Haha, touché; though I'd have thought after that failure they wouldn't touch animated LOTR for a while!

    Definitely interesting to see a Western studio aiming to make an "anime" film and release it to the cinema. That's relatively unprecedented I think?

    Per The Hollywood Reporter, Kamiyama’s animated Lord of the Rings entry has now been moved from its original April 12, 2024 release date to December 13, 2024. .....

    ..... pushed back because of the ongoing actors strikes, it does have the benefit of aligning this new film with the release windows of the previous Lord of the Rings films, which all shared December openings.

    Not a peep about this yet. Dec 2024 isn't very far away from an animated movie's POV. Would have expected to have seen at least some concept are by now if it was originally scheduled for less than 9 months away. True, anime studios normally play their cards close to their chests (Miyazaki's last film didn't have a trailer at all and only release about 3 images after release). Small studio. some Starship Troopers stuff. Some work on Ghost in The Shell SAC

    Not really holding out for this. Ain't exactly gonna be Spiderverse, I'm just sayin'
