Chainsaw Man is heading to the big screen this year, and we will be getting some important news soon. As announced this week, Chainsaw Man: Reze Arc will be sharing new information on March 23, 2025, during its panel at AnimeJapan.

Fans are expecting that the new information includes an official release date for the movie, which is set to be released in Japan at some point in 2025, as well as further details about the plot. MAPPA has only released a couple of short teasers so far, so we might be getting a full official trailer too.

The movie is set to adapt the Reze Arc from Tatsuki Fujimoto's popular manga. The official synopsis reads: "Denji became Chainsaw Man, a boy with a devil’s heart, and is now part of Special Division 4’s devil hunters. After a date with Makima, the woman of his dreams, Denji takes shelter from the rain. There he meets Reze, a girl who works in a café."
