TOHO began streaming a Japanese trailer with new footage for Michael Dudok de Wit and Studio Ghibli’s animated film The Red Turtle (La Tortue rouge) on Thursday.
The film is slated to open in Japan on September 17 with the title Red Turtle – Aru Shima no Monogatari (Red Turtle – A Certain Island’s Story).
The Red Turtle is the latest work by award-winning Dutch animator and director Michael Dudok de Wit (“The Monk and the Fish,” “Father & Daughter” animated shorts).
Studio Ghibli co-produced the film with French film production and distribution company Wild Bunch (co-producers on The Secret World of Arrietty).
