Your Name 4K Remaster Opens in North American Theaters Aug 14
GKIDS, the Academy Award‑winning distributor of artist‑driven animation, announced a 4K remaster of Makoto Shinkai’s 2016 anime film Your Name. The film will screen nationwide across North America beginning on August 14 in both its original Japanese audio and an English dub.
Your Name, which tells the story of rural schoolgirl Mitsuha and city youth Taki swapping bodies, became a global phenomenon on its original release, earning more than $400 million worldwide and becoming the highest‑grossing original Japanese animated feature ever. The new release celebrates the film’s 10th anniversary, and GKIDS released a fresh trailer alongside the announcement.
