Sony Revs Up ‘Chainsaw Man’ Movie with New Trailer & Series Recap

Today, Sony Pictures Entertainment launched the official trailer for Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, the highly anticipated new feature film based on the hit action anime series Chainsaw Man. SPE has also debuted a series recap video to help prepare fans for the epic big screen battle, coming to U.S. theaters on October 24.

Synopsis: For the first time, Chainsaw Man slashes his way onto the big screen in an epic, action-fueled adventure that continues the hugely popular anime series.

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.

Produced by MAPPA, which also animates the series, Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc is directed by Tatsuya Yoshihara (Chainsaw Man, Black Clover) and written by Hiroshi Seko (Dan Da Dan, Jujutsu Kaisen), based on the original manga Chainsaw Man by Tatsuki Fujimoto (serialized in Shueisha’s Shonen Jump).

The movie features the returning voice cast from the television series, with new additions to the roster including Reina Ueda (Solo Leveling, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba) as Reze.

Toho premiered the film in Japan on September 19.

Japanese versions of both the movie trailer and series recap with subtitles are also available here and here.
