The movie is the latest project in the Yōkai Ningen Bem (Humanoid Monster Bem) franchise, and is scheduled to open this fall.
The staff of Gekijо̄ban BEM~BECOME HUMAN, the upcoming anime film based on the rebooted BEM anime series, announced on Monday that the film will guest star Toshiya Miyata, who is a member of the Kis-My-Ft2 boy band.
