Tora ni Tsubasa film adaptation production

Overview

The theatrical film adaptation of the NHK morning drama ‘Tora ni Tsubasa’ is scheduled for release on January 15, 2027. The production features a reunion of the original cast, including lead actress Sari Ito and Masaki Okada, and marks a significant milestone as the first time in 50 years that the main cast of an NHK morning drama will continue their roles for a film version.

Directed by Yoshiro Nagakawa and written by Erika Yoshida, the movie will present a completely original story following the protagonist, Torako, through a ‘final case’ after her retirement as a court president.

Subsequent updates confirmed that Kenshi Yonezu’s song ‘Sayonara Mata Itsuka!’ will serve as the film’s opening theme. The song was originally written for the 2024 television series.
