Warner Bros. Discovery to Expand Anime Production in Japan: ‘The Genre Is Increasing Reach and Relevance Globally’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Warner Bros. Discovery is to expand anime production in Japan as it sees the category reaching ever-wider audiences.
It is produced by Warner Bros. Japan and WIT Studio, the celebrated Japanese studio behind global hit anime series such as “Attack on Titan” (season 1-3) and “Spy x Family.” Directed by Osada Eri from a screenplay by Nagatsuki Tappei, the series will release in Japan in July, with entry into international markets to follow at an unconfirmed date closer to the year end. The story sees Amanda Waller, the head of A.R.G.U.S., assemble a group of notorious DC criminals Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Peacemaker, Clayface and King Shark for a mission into an otherworldly realm full of swords and magic and where orcs rampage and dragons rule the skies. The conglomerate has plans to finally bring its Max streaming product into East Asia, where a stopgap HBO Go service continues to operate.
