Hayao Miyazaki's Latest Film "The Boy and the Heron" Gets North American Release Date After Mysterious Japan Debut

Hayao Miyazaki's latest film is titled "The Boy and the Heron" for its North American release after debuting in Japan as "How Do You Live?".
The film marks Miyazaki's return from retirement and features his signature hand-drawn animation style.
Studio Ghibli intentionally did not release any marketing material, aiming to recreate the sense of wonder from Miyazaki's youth.
The film follows a young boy growing up after his father's death in 1940s Japan.
North American distributor GKIDS plans to release the film in late 2023 after its July 2023 Japan premiere.
