New York-based film distributors GKIDS has licensed Pompo the Cinephile (known as Eiga Daisuki Pompo-san in Japan), a 2021 theatrical anime film based on the manga by Shogo Sugitani about a group of young producers trying to make their movie dreams a reality.
GKIDS plans to release Pompo the Cinephile in U.S. theaters in 2022 in both the original Japanese language with English subtitles as well as a brand new English dubbed version.
Pompo is a talented and gutsy producer in “Nyallywood,” the movie-making capital of the world.
