“#Kakegurui Live-action Film Sequel Gets New Release Date of June 1”

The official website for the live-action film Eiga Kakegurui: Zettai Zetsumei Russian Roulette (Kakegurui The Movie: Russian Roulette in Desperate Situation) announced today that its theatrical release in Japan is newly set for June 1, 2021.

The second live-action film based on Homura Kawamoto (story) and Toru Naomura (art)’s gambling themed manga Kakegurui was originally set to be released in Japan on April 29, 2021, but has been postponed twice (to May 12 first) due to worsening conditions of the COVID-10 pandemic and the declaration of a state of emergency in four prefectures on April 25. The Japanese government has planned to lift the state of emergency in Tokyo and other areas at the end of this month, but an extension is looking more and more likely. So the date may be changed again.

At the moment, the film’s advance screening and stage greeting event without an audience is set to be held on May 27, and it will be broadcast live in a total of 169 theaters across Japan. The film’s main cast memebrs – Minami Hamabe (Yumeko Jabami), Mahiro Takasugi (Ryota Suzui), Ryusei Fujii (Makuro Shikigami), Elaiza Ikeda (Kirari Momobami), Aoi Morikawa (Mary Saotome), Tsutomu Hanabusa (director), and milet (theme song artist) are scheduled to join.
