Sony Pictures just dropped the official U.S. trailer for Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, and if you’re a fan of devil-slaying chaos and emotional gut-punches, mark your calendar for October 29th.
This marks the first time Denji, the chainsaw-headed anti-hero, is hitting the big screen in what looks like a beautifully animated, high-octane expansion of the anime series.
The movie is described as an “epic, action-fueled adventure that continues the hugely popular anime series.” In the story, “Denji worked as a Devil Hunter for the yakuza, trying to pay off the debt he inherited from his parents, until the yakuza betrayed him and had him killed.
“As he was losing consciousness, Denji’s beloved chainsaw-powered devil-dog, Pochita, made a deal with Denji and saved his life. This fused the two together, creating the unstoppable Chainsaw Man.
“Now, in a brutal war between devils, hunters, and secret enemies, a mysterious girl named Reze has stepped into his world, and Denji faces his deadliest battle yet, fueled by love in a world where survival knows no rules.”
Directed by Chainsaw Man series veteran Tatsuya Yoshihara, with a script by Hiroshi Seko and animation by MAPPA, the film dives deep into one of the manga’s most fan-favorite arcs.
Enjoy the trailer!
