Theatrical Overlord Movie Announced Alongside Season 4 of Hit Anime
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Exciting news for anime fans as Kadokawa has revealed that an
Overlord movie is in the works alongside the fourth season of the
highly popular anime. One Punch Man and Hunter x Hunter studio
MADHOUSE will once again helm the upcoming season. While no staff
or crew were announced for the film, it will cover the "Holy
Kingdom Arc" of the light novel.

"At last, the fourth season of the anime and the theatrical movie
are in production," director Naoyuki Ito said (via Funimation).
"We are working hard to ensure that the show will be satisfying
to both fans of the original versions and those who only follow
the anime. You're going to love it."

The full announced crew includes Itou, Yukie Sugawara as the
script supervisor, so-bin for the original character design, and
Satoshi Tasaki handling character design. Satoshi Hino will
return as Ainz, while Yumi Hara, Sumire Uesaka, Emiri Kato, Yumi
Uchiyama, Masayuki Katou, and Kenta Miyake will also reprise
their respective roles for Season 4.

Overlord premiered in 2015 and is adapted from Kugane Maruyama's
popular light novel that features art from artist so-bin. The
series takes place in the year 2126 and focuses on a massively
multiplayer online role-playing game called YGGDRASIL. As the
servers are shut down, the strongest player in the game, Momonga,
stays logged in and gets transported to a different reality.
Non-playable characters gain sentience and Momonga uses his
ridiculous power to figure out what happened while also looking
for anyone else from the real world.

The full Overlord anime, including the first three seasons and
two films (which are recaps rather than theatrical releases),
is available now on Funimation both in subbed and dubbed forms.
Meanwhile, Crunchyroll has access to the first three seasons
subbed, while the first season's dub can also be watched on
Hulu.

No release date for the Overlord movie or Season 4 was given,
but two pieces of art were released, which you can check out
below.
