So far, “My Neighbour Totoro“, “Kiki’s Delivery Service”, “Castle in the Sky, “Tales from Earthsea”, “Porco Rosso”, “Only Yesterday” and “Ocean Waves” have all already started streaming while seven films will launch on March 1st and the final batch of seven more will be released on April 1st.
The highly anticipated new film from Hayao Miyazaki, “How do You Live?”, was expected to be released this year before the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics (which will be held in July), but in a recent interview, Toshio Suzuki, the film’s producer said that after three and a half years of work, the film was still about 15% complete.
Furthermore, plans are also progressing for a Studio Ghibli theme park in the Aichi Prefecture, Japan, details of which have also just been released.
The park will be divided into different areas: Ghibli’s Giant Warehouse; a “My Neighbour Totoro”-themed Dondoko Forest; “Princess Mononoke” Village; Springtime of Youth Hill, which will have attractions from “Howl’s Moving Castle” and “Castle in the Sky”; and Witch Valley, which will be based on “Kiki’s Delivery Service”.
