Manga Entertainment has announced that it is bringing the iconic anime feature Akira back to UK cinemas with a remastered 4K release, as well as select IMAX screens for the very first time for a limited run. Check out the new poster artwork and trailer for the release here…

The definitive anime masterpiece! Neo-Tokyo, 2019. The city is being rebuilt post World War III. Kaneda and Tetsuo, two high school drop outs, stumble on a secret government project to develop new weapons – telekinetic humans. Tetsuo learns of the existence of his ‘peer’, Akira, the project’s most powerful subject, and determines to challenge him…

“Akira is the film that made Manga Entertainment – and so we’re honoured to be able to bring it back to UK and Irish screens in this gorgeous new version remastered in stunning 4K,” said Darcy Giles, PR & Social Media Manager at Manga Entertainment. “It’s an absolute delight, and an unmissable experience for anime and film fans alike.”
