NHK announced today that Studio Ghibli’s all-new anime feature based on Diana Wynne Jones (Howl’s Moving Castle)’s 2011 children novel Earwig and the Witch (Japanese title: Earwig to Majyo) is set to be broadcast on NHK General TV in the winter of 2020.
Goro Miyazaki (Tales from Earthsea, From Up on Poppy Hill) serves as director based on the planning by his father Hayao Miyazaki.
Earwig is whisked off to their mysterious house full of invisible rooms, potions, and spell books, with magic around every corner.
