Five classic anime films are headed to US Theaters.

Five classic anime films, including the long-absent Cowboy Bebop movie, are returning to US theaters, many for the first time in ages. The films include three beloved classics from the late genius Satoshi Kon as well as two other staples of anime fandom in the lates '90s and 2000s.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Iconic Events Releasing is partnered with Anime Expo to bring "AX Cinema Nights," a year-round celebration of anime films, to theaters across the country, featuring a number of well-respected anime films. Among these are three films from celebrated director Satoshi Kon: Perfect Blue, Paprika, and Tokyo Godfathers, along with Cowboy Bebop: The Movie and the original Ghost in the Shell film.

Anime Classics Finally Return to the Silver Screen The first event for Perfect Blue's 25th anniversary is set to debut on September 6 and 7, in both sub and dub form, with an encore of both versions on September 10. Next is Ghost in the Shell on November 8 and 9, with an encore on November 12. Following that is Tokyo Godfathers for its 20th anniversary on December 11 and 12, with encores on December 13.

The news of these films returning to theaters is bound to be exciting for fans. Cowboy Bebop: The Movie isn't currently available on any streaming service, and hasn't been released on Blu-ray in over 10 years, making copies somewhat hard to find. Ghost in the Shell is obviously a seminal cyberpunk work, as well as an incredible movie in its own right.

Screenings are set to take place at over 300 theaters across the country, meaning that it shouldn't be too hard for fans to find a theater playing the films near them. The option to choose between subbed and dubbed screenings is always welcome for fans who frequently debate the issue of which is superior.
