In case you’re remiss and follow anime and cinema, there’s definitely a new live-action Sakamoto Days movie coming in April, and it’s definitely got a new trailer to help stir the pot some. The film stars Ren Meguro whose boyband, Snow Man is back in the limelight for a tease of the film’s title track.
Yuto Suzuki’s Weekly Shonen Jump publication sets the stage promptly with the story of a legendary assassin whose retirement into convience store work and family life get upended with the return of old and new foes. The first bits of the campaign kicked off with a teaser last year and there have also been some extra promos along the way, followed by the announced additions of Aya Ueto and Miyu Yoshimoto, along with Fumiya Takahashi, Mayu Yokota, Shinya Kote, Hanami Sakurai, and Takumi Kitamura among others.
To this, the newest official trailer should set the stage some as we’re a few months out, and I hope to catch this on the 2026 festival circuit as well. Sakamoto Days hails from Toho Films, and is produced by Avex Pictures in association with CREDEUS Inc.
