Ghibli's Whisper of the Heart and Arrietty Get 4K Remaster IMAX Screenings

Toho announced on August 7 that Studio Ghibli's Whisper of the Heart (1995) and The Secret World of Arrietty (2010) will be screened in theaters as 4K digital remastered versions supervised by Ghibli. The two films will run concurrently at IMAX theaters nationwide from October 23 to November 2. A second window runs from October 30 to November 12, when the 4K remasters expand to all 47 prefectures and also play in Dolby Cinema. The screenings use a 4K DCP format, though theaters without 4K equipment may convert the projection to 2K. The announcement came through a promotional video on Toho's official YouTube channel, Toho Movie Channel. Whisper of the Heart, directed by Yoshifumi Kondo, adapts Aoi Hiiragi's manga and follows middle school student Shizuku Tsukishima, voiced by Youko Honna, and Seiji Amasawa, voiced by Kazuma Takahashi. The Secret World of Arrietty, directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, adapts Mary Norton's children's novel and centers on the borrower girl Arrietty, voiced by Mirai Shida, and the human boy Sho, voiced by Ryunosuke Kamiki. New poster visuals and trailer footage for the IMAX release were also published.

Ghibli's 'Whisper of the Heart' and 'The Secret World of Arrietty' Get IMAX Screenings

GKIDS announced that two Studio Ghibli films, 'Whisper of the Heart' (1995) and 'The Secret World of Arrietty' (2010), will screen in North American IMAX theaters this spring. Each film will have a one-day-only event: 'Whisper of the Heart' on April 21 and 'The Secret World of Arrietty' on May 19. Both are newly remastered in 4K and will be presented in IMAX for the first time. Showings will be available in Japanese with subtitles and English-dubbed versions. The screenings continue GKIDS' partnership with IMAX, which last month brought 'Kiki's Delivery Service' to the format. 'Whisper of the Heart,' directed by Yoshifumi Kondo from a script by Hayao Miyazaki, follows a middle schooler pursuing a writing career in suburban Tokyo. 'The Secret World of Arrietty,' directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi and adapted from Mary Norton's 'The Borrowers,' follows a tiny family living under a human home. Miyazaki contributed to the screenplay and planning for 'Arrietty.'
