The first film released back in 2021, and was finally followed up with a second film that released earlier this year across Japan. Now it’s coming to North America.

Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway The Sorcery of Nymph Circe will be coming to theaters in the United States on May 15th, and there is a chance to get one of three exclusive collectible cards highlighting the mobile suits from the new film such as the Xi Gundam and the RX-104FF Penelope. Originally opening in Japan earlier this year, the sequel has done much better in the box office across that region with approximately 2.63 billion yen ($16.3 million USD). Keeping the trilogy’s story going, things are getting much more intense.

Based on an original concept from Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hajime Yatate, Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway The Sorcery of Nymph Circe is directed by Shukou Murase for Bandai Namco Filmworks’ Sunrise Animation Studios. Yasuyuki Muto provided the script, pablo uchida, Naoyuki Onda and Shigeki Kuhara provided the character designs, and Hiroyuki Sawano composed the music. It’s going to have some cool music behind it all too such as the insert songs “ENDROLL” by Yohei Kawakami [Alexandros] × SennaRin and “CIRCE” SennaRin.

The new opening theme for Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway The Sorcery of Nymph Circe will feature SZA’s “Snooze” as its official opening theme song, and Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child O’ Mine” as the ending theme. Kensho Ono will be leading the Japanese voice cast as Hathaway Noa, and the English dub cast is lead by Caleb Yen as Noa. It’s all picking up right from where the previous film left off as Hathaway is teased to be “drawn to a mysterious girl named Gigi Andalucia, whose strange powers stir memories within him.”

As Hathaway continues prepping for MAFTY’s next mission, they are gearing up for an attack on the Adelaide Conference. On the Earth Federation Forces side of things, Kenneth Sleg is preparing defense for the Adelaide Conference with a plan to wipe out MATHY. It’s a lot of action and political intrigue coming soon, so make sure to keep an eye out for it this May.
