Both the movie’s overall theme song, titled “IRIS OUT,” and the anime’s opening theme song, “KICK BACK,” were performed by Yonezu.
The movie is slated to hit Japanese theaters on September 19. After this, it will be on the big screen in more than 80 other countries starting on September 24. Fans in the United States and United Kingdom will have to wait a little longer, as we won’t be getting it in our theaters until October 29. Sony Pictures Entertainment has international theatrical rights and is making sure to get this movie viewed as widely as possible around the globe.
The movie is being made at MAPPA, with Tatsuya Yoshihara, who has previously worked on the TV anime as a key animator, episode director and storyboarder, helming this project as the full-on director. Its script was penned by Hiroshi Seko, who also worked on the TV anime. Likewise, composer kensuke ushio was involved with the TV anime as well.
Reina Ueda has been cast as the character Reze.
MAPPA gave this description for the movie:
