Children of the Sea opened in Japan in June 2019 and ranked at #5 in its opening weekend.
Fathom Events’ screening was originally scheduled for April 20 and 22 in the U.S., followed by GKIDS’ separate theatrical run on April 24.
The screenings were scheduled for August 11 and 13 through Fathom Events after a previous delay.
