The Hottest New Anime Makes Its Long-Awaited Big Screen Debut This April In SPY x FAMILY CODE: White
Japan’s heartfelt and action-packed #1 box office sensation opens wide across the UK & IRE from Friday 26th April!
London, UK, 8th March 2024 – Organising a family holiday can often feel like the world is at stake, but it really is for the most beloved family in anime, who are about to make their big screen debut! Opening to four consecutive weeks at #1 at the Japanese box office, Anime Limited and TOHO are excited to announce that the highly anticipated SPY x FAMILY CODE: White is releasing wide exclusively in cinemas across the UK and Ireland from Friday 26th April.
An action comedy about a makeshift family, SPY x FAMILY follows the talented spy Loid Forger, and Yor, an assassin who is as sweet as she is deadly, who have to play house to further their own ambitions – while being oblivious to the other’s secret. The only person who knows the full story is Anya, their cheeky adopted daughter, who is a telepath. Jumping to the big screen with an all-new story supervised by the manga’s original author Tatsuya Endo, SPY x FAMILY CODE: White serves as a perfect introduction to the series while also being an unmissable treat for fans.
The big screen debut for a series celebrated for its mix of heartfelt family moments and slick action, SPY x FAMILY CODE: White is directed by Takashi Katagiri (SPY x FAMILY Season 1) with a script by Ichiro Ohkouchi (Mobile Suit Gundam THE WITCH FROM MERCURY), and animation provided by WIT STUDIO (Attack on Titan Seasons 1-3) and CloverWorks (The Promised Neverland).
SPY x FAMILY is one of the hottest properties in Japan right now. Serialised since 2019, the original manga now has over 35 million copies in circulation and has earned critical acclaim, including two Eisner Award nominations. The series has also spawned a multimedia franchise, including an incredibly popular anime that recently concluded its second season, merchandise, stage adaptations, and video games.
Synopsis:
He’s a spy. She’s an assassin. Together, Loid and Yor keep their double lives to themselves while pretending to be the perfect family. However, their adopted daughter Anya, a telepath, knows both of their exciting secrets unbeknownst to them. While under the guise of taking his family on a weekend winter getaway, Loid’s attempt to make progress on his current mission Operation Strix proves difficult when Anya mistakenly gets involved and triggers events that threaten world peace!
SPY x FAMILY CODE: White will be released in selected cinemas across the United Kingdom and Ireland from 26th April 2024 in Japanese with English subtitles, and an English-language dub.
