Miyazaki's Debut Feature, Lupin The 3rd The Castke OF Caglliostro, in U.S. Cinemas For Limited Theatrical Release September 2017

ELEVEN ARTS Anime Studio and TMS Entertainment USA are partnering to bring Hayao Miyazaki's 1979 classic, Lupin the 3rdTHE CASTLE OF CAGLIOSTRO” to big screens nationwide in September for Lupin's 50th Anniversary. More details to come in the next few weeks along with new assets!

The Japanese animated comedy-drama adventure film was co-written and directed by Miyazaki as his feature film debut. “The Anime Art of Hayao Miyazaki,” written by Dani Cavallaro, mentions: “Cagliostro, the country and the setting, is depicted in meticulous detail and unconstrained by limitations of architecture, geography, and culture which can be described as ‘akogare no Paris’ (Paris of our dreams), which is a fantastical view of Europe through Eastern eyes.”

The Castle of Cagliostro follows the great thief Arsène Lupin III, who successfully robs a casino – only to find the money to be counterfeit. He heads to the tiny country of Cagliostro, the rumored source of the bills, and attempts to save the runaway Clarisse from Count Cagliostro's men. Lupin enlists his associates, Jigen and Goemon, and sends his calling to the Count to get Inspector Zenigata, his longtime nemesis, to the castle. After becoming trapped in the dungeon under the castle, Lupin and Zenigata form a pact to escape and foil the Count's counterfeit operation and save Clarisse from her forced marriage to the Count.
