Future Studio Ghibli Films

Although The Boy and the Heron was initially thought to be Hayao Miyazaki's final film, as of October 2023, he continues to work on a new project for Studio Ghibli. Producer Toshio Suzuki commented, “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 this upcoming project have been disclosed.
