"Last month, Studio Ghibli exec Junichi Nishioka revealed at the Toronto Film
Festival that the upcoming “The Boy and the Heron” would NOT be 82-year-old
Hayao Miyazaki’s final film.
‘Heron’ follows a 12-year-old boy named Mahito Maki (Santoki) who is moved to a
countryside town with his father and aunt, a place where he doesn’t fit in.
He soon discovers a mysterious abandoned tower in the woods nearby and, with
the help of a talking grey heron, enters a fantastical alternate world of
magic.
Out promoting the film in Europe recently, producer Toshio Suzuki told French
newspaper
Liberation (via
World of Reel) that Miyazaki is already excitedly
working on his next film:
“He thinks about this new project every day, I can no longer stop him, I
have given up on that. I’m no longer trying to dissuade him, even if it
might be a bad film. In life, only work enchants him.
We spoke again earlier today […] he started talking about this new project,
so I’m not stopping him anymore. As long as he works I will not retire. He
is 82 years old, I think he will continue until he is 90 years old and I’ll
be going along with him for the ride.”
The comments come as both a new poster and international trailer for “The Boy
and the Heron” have been released. That film is set to premiere in select U.S.
theaters on November 22nd followed by a nationwide rollout December 8th."
