The official website for the live-action film Eiga Kakegurui: Zettai Zetsumei Russian Roulette (Kakegurui The Movie: Russian Roulette in Desperate Situation) announced today that its theatrical release in Japan is newly set for June 1, 2021.
The second live-action film based on Homura Kawamoto (story) and Toru Naomura (art)’s gambling themed manga Kakegurui was originally set to be released in Japan on April 29, 2021, but has been postponed twice (to May 12 first) due to worsening conditions of the COVID-10 pandemic and the declaration of a state of emergency in four prefectures on April 25.
The Japanese government has planned to lift the state of emergency in Tokyo and other areas at the end of this month, but an extension is looking more and more likely.
