From September 4 to September 10 2026, Disney and Pixar are mounting a one‑week limited theatrical run of the Japanese‑dubbed version of the animated film “Cars” at cinemas nationwide, celebrating the movie’s 20th anniversary.

The promotion includes a complimentary original postcard featuring a special 20‑year‑anniversary visual for the first‑come‑first‑served attendees. The 2006 release earned approximately $462 million worldwide, was the second‑highest‑grossing animated film in the United States that year, and received Golden Globe and Annie awards. Follow‑up titles such as “Cars 2,” “Cars 3,” and related series have kept the franchise in the public eye.
