Evangelion's Final Film Is Ready to Hit U.S. Theaters
It is time to bring the Rebuild of Evangelion film series to a close, everyone. After years of hard work, Hideaki Anno and his team wrapped the series in Japan several months ago. At last, the film is preparing for its U.S. debut, and we have the group at GKIDS to thank.
The film distributor announced it has secured the rights to share Evangelion 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time in stateside theaters. At this time, the specific theatrical dates have not been announced nor have the home video street dates. However, fans are hoping the film will be ready to go some time this fall if all things work out.
