The upcoming Chainsaw Man movie adapts an explosive arc from the manga!
It's been quite a while since Chainsaw Man fans saw any new material from the beloved manga's anime adaptation.
The original anime TV series aired in 2022, and since then, people have been waiting for the sequel - a movie that was first announced in 2023.
Produced by the same anime studio as the anime series, MAPPA (Jujutsu Kaisen), this film is titled Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, and will continue the story from where the TV adaptation left off.
As you can probably guess, it adapts the Reze Arc from the manga, introducing a new female character named Reze.
Happily, that movie now has a release date, set to arrive in cinemas later in 2025. Here's everything you need to know about Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc!
Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc is set to come out on 19th September 2025 in Japan. It will arrive a week later overseas, screening in cinemas on 24th September 2025.
The Chainsaw Man manga made its debut in 2018, and is still ongoing. That means there's plenty of material for the anime franchise to adapt, and with only one season of TV so far, we're still relatively close to the beginning of the narrative.
The Reze Arc takes place between chapters 40 and 52 of the manga, which is currently 198 chapters long in total. This particular arc makes sense for a standalone film because it introduces a new character (the titular Reze) and involves a romantic subplot for protagonist Denji.
Here's the voice cast for Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc:
