Since Chainsaw Man ended in 2022, fans have been waiting for news of a second season, but instead the studio behind the adaptation, MAPPA (Jujutsu Kaisen), treated fans to the surprising news that Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze will be coming soon.

The film will pick up where the anime series ended, and will adapt the fan favourite Reze arc from Tatsuki Fujimoto’s manga – that’s right, this film will be canon, not filler.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Chainsaw Man movie!

When will the Chainsaw Man movie be released?

While there is no firm release date yet, it is likely the film will come out in late 2024.

What will the Chainsaw Man movie be about?

The movie will follow the Reze arc of the manga, which took place between chapters 40 and 52 of the manga — 12 chapters long in total.

Without spoiling too much of the story, the film will see our protagonist Denji fall for a girl who has an explosive side.
