The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim | Official Trailer

Peter Jackson presents a groundbreaking journey back to Middle-earth through the eyes of legendary director Kenji Kamiyama.
#LOTR The War of the Rohirrim - only in theaters Christmas.

New Line Cinema’s original anime feature “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” returns audiences to the epic world brought to life in “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy, based on the revered books by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Under the direction of award-winning filmmaker Kenji Kamiyama (the “Blade Runner: Black Lotus” and “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex” TV series), the talented voice cast is led by Brian Cox (“Succession”) as Helm Hammerhand, the mighty King of Rohan; Gaia Wise (“A Walk in the Woods”) as his daughter Héra; and Luke Pasqualino (“Snowpiercer”) as Wulf. Miranda Otto, who delivered an unforgettable, award-winning performance in “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy, reprises her role as Éowyn, Shieldmaiden of Rohan, who serves as the tale’s narrator. The voice ensemble also includes Lorraine Ashbourne (Netflix’s “Bridgerton”), Yazdan Qafouri (“I Came By”), Benjamin Wainwright (“World on Fire”), Laurence Ubong Williams (“Gateway”), Shaun Dooley (“The Witcher”), Michael Wildman (“Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw”), Jude Akuwudike (“Beasts of No Nation”), Bilal Hasna (“Sparks”) and Janine Duvitski (“Benidorm”).

Set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films, “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” tells the fate of the House of Helm Hammerhand, the legendary King of Rohan. A sudden attack by Wulf, a clever and ruthless Dunlending lord seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg— a mighty fortress that will later come to be known as Helm’s Deep. Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Héra, the daughter of Helm, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their total destruction.

With Kamiyama at the helm, the original feature is being produced by Oscar winner Philippa Boyens, from the screenwriting team behind “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit” Trilogies, alongside Jason DeMarco and Joseph Chou, who, in addition to their many separate animation projects, collaborated on the “Blade Runner: Black Lotus” series. The executive producers are Fran Walsh, Peter Jackson, Sam Register, Carolyn Blackwood and Toby Emmerich. The screenplay is by Jeffrey Addiss & Will Matthews and Phoebe Gittins & Arty Papageorgiou, story by Addiss & Matthews and Boyens, based on characters created by J.R.R. Tolkien. The team of creative collaborators returning from “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy also includes Oscar winners Alan Lee and Richard Taylor, along with esteemed Tolkien illustrator John Howe.

A New Line Cinema Presentation, a Warner Bros. Animation / Sola Entertainment Production, “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim,” will be distributed theatrically worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, released in cinemas nationwide on December 13, 2024, and internationally beginning 11 December 2024.

GKIDS Acquires Theatrical & Home Video Rights to Critical and Box Office Sensation, “LOOK BACK”

The Feature Directorial Debut of Kiyotaka Oshiyama
Based on the Acclaimed Manga by “Chainsaw Man” Author Tatsuki Fujimoto

Coming to Theaters Nationwide October 4th

GKIDS, the Academy Award®-winning producer and distributor of acclaimed and artist-driven animation from around the world, announced today it has acquired theatrical and home video rights for North America to the critical and box office sensation LOOK BACK. Directed and adapted for the screen by Kiyotaka Oshiyama, the film is based on the critically acclaimed original manga by best-selling author Tatsuki Fujimoto (“Chainsaw Man”). GKIDS will release LOOK BACK in theaters nationwide starting October 4th in its original Japanese language.

LOOK BACK debuted at this year’s Annecy International Film Festival to multiple packed house screenings and rave reviews. It additionally held sold-out premieres at New York City’s Japan Cuts and Los Angeles’ Anime Expo. Upon its domestic release, LOOK BACK was a box office darling, having originally opened on 119 screens and quickly climbing to over 1 billion yen at the box office in the first two weeks. Due to popular demand, LOOK BACK remains in theaters and has since expanded its Japanese domestic run.

The film is based on the critically acclaimed manga of the same name from globally beloved and award-winning writer Tatsuki Fujimoto (“Chainsaw Man”). Upon its release, the original manga boasted 2.5 million reads on its first date of digital publication, and climbed to over 4 million in two days. The manga went on to receive numerous awards and nominations, including a nomination at the 2023 Eisner Awards.

LOOK BACK is the first feature production from Studio Durian, the studio founded by Director Oshiyama. Prior to LOOK BACK, Oshiyama has held key roles in several acclaimed works, including Key Animator on Hayao Miyazaki’s The Boy and the Heron, Character Designer for the anime adaptation of Tatsuki Fujimoto’s Chainsaw Man, and Director of Flip Flappers – his series directorial debut. LOOK BACK is Oshiyama’s feature-length directorial debut.

The deal was negotiated between GKIDS and Avex Pictures.

HIDIVE ADDS “How I attendED an All-Guy's Mixer” TO FALL 2024 LINE-UP

World Premiere Screening to be Held at Anime NYC 2024 on August 25

HOUSTON, TX — August 23, 2024 — Fans can look forward to rom com fun this fall with today’s announcement that the new anime series How I Attended an All-Guy's Mixer will debut next season on HIDIVE. Based on the popular manga by Nana Aokawa, How I Attended an All-Guy’s Mixer will stream exclusively on AMC Networks’ HIDIVE as part of the anime streaming service’s Fall 2024 simulcast season. Ahead of the series’ October debut, HIDIVE will host the world premiere of How I Attended an All-Guy’s Mixer Episodes 1 & 7 on Sunday, August 25 in the Javits Center at Anime NYC 2024.

“We’re excited to bring How I Attended an All-Guy’s Mixer to HIDIVE as an exclusive simulcast series this fall,” said John Ledford, President of HIDIVE. “This humorous new rom com is sure to offer a fun filled time starting this October. And attendees at this month’s Anime NYC will have the chance to be part of the very first audience to watch the series at the world premiere screening hosted by HIDIVE!”

College student Tokiwa gets invited to a mixer by his female classmate Suo. But when he arrives with his friends Asagi and Hagi, they're greeted by three dazzlingly handsome men. Turns out these three cute boys are actually women in drag—still in costume from their day jobs at a butler cafe that caters to a female clientele! As the six get to know each other, they soon find themselves getting closer in unexpectedly heartwarming (and hilarious) ways.

How I Attended an All-Guy’s Mixer is adapted from the now seven-volume-long manga title written and illustrated by Nana Aokawa that originally launched online in March 2020 prior to its serialization in Square Enix’s Gangan Online starting in February 2021. The English language version is available on Square Enix’s Manga UP! mobile app.

The anime adaptation is produced by Ashi Productions with direction by Kazuomi Koga, writing by Deko Akao and character design by Yoko Tanable, who also serves as chief animation director. How I Attended an All-Guy’s Mixer stars Mikako Komatsu as Suo, Shunsuke Takeuchi as Tokiwa and Takehito Kajiwara as Hagi.
