Future Studio Ghibli Films

Although The Boy and the Heron was initially rumored to be Hayao Miyazaki's last film, as of October 2023, Miyazaki is actively developing his next project for Studio Ghibli. Producer Toshio Suzuki remarked, “He's thinking about this next project every day, and I can't stop him — in fact, I've given up. I no longer try to dissuade him, even if he were to make a failed film. In life, it's only the work that delights him.” No further details about the upcoming project have been disclosed.
