A wider North American theatrical run is planned for 2017.
According to Variety, FUNimation plans to screen Makoto Shinkai’s hit anime movie Your Name. at Los Angeles’ Laemmle Music Hall for a one-week Oscar qualifying run from December 2-8.
The film already premiered at the Shinkai retrospective for Anime Expo in Los Angeles in July before its international film festival run and its box-office topping Japanese theatrical run.
