After several months of uncertainty and rumors, the arrival of one of the most anticipated anime films of the year has been confirmed: Chainsaw Man. This new film, which will cover the next arc of the successful manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto, is scheduled for its world premiere on October 29, 2025, as announced by Sony Pictures through its social media.
A movie we have been waiting for years
Despite the global confirmation, Sony’s official account in Spain has opted for a more vague message, mentioning only “Coming Soon,” which has caused some confusion among fans. However, the release date is expected to be the same as internationally. The reasons for this lack of clarity could be related to rights issues and other logistical matters that are still being resolved.
The news of the premiere has been met with enthusiasm in the Chainsaw Man fan community, who have been eager to see the film adaptation of one of the most popular mangas today. Although many wished for an immediate release, the wait seems worth it to obtain a quality experience. It is still to be defined when the movie will be available in digital format; it is estimated that, if all goes as planned, the release for streaming platforms like Crunchyroll could occur in 2026, given that this service is part of Sony and currently holds the rights to the series produced by MAPPA.
With this information, Chainsaw Man positions itself as one of the major events for anime fans in the coming years, and its arrival in theaters promises to be a milestone within the world of Japanese entertainment.
