DRAGON BALL Z: RESURRECTION ‘F’ Now in Theaters
Theatrical Event to Screen August 4 – 12 in More Than 1,000 Theaters Across U.S. and Canada
Ending the wait of hundreds of thousands of anime fans across North America, FUNimation Entertainment’s “Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’” will screen August 4‐12 in theaters across the U.S. and Canada. The story is a follow‐up to last year’s highly successful “Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods.”
“Last year’s phenomenal fan response to Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods resulted in sold out theaters across North America,“ said Gen Fukunaga, CEO and founder of FUNimation. “For Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’ we’ve expanded our theatrical distribution to more than 1,000 theaters to meet fan demand, but it wouldn’t surprise me if theaters sell‐out again. This movie is visually stunning and offers even more action that Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods.”
“We’re excited to be bringing Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’ to so many theaters across North America this coming August,“ said Mike DuBoise, COO of FUNimation. “With more theaters, more action, and the brilliance of series creator Akira Toriyama on the big screen, this limited engagement will be an epic Dragon Ball Z experience that fans of all ages across the U.S. and Canada will not want to miss.”
“Fans are in for another amazing ride with Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’,” said Mike DuBoise, EVP and COO of FUNimation. “We will be raising the bar for the anime theater‐going experience.”
“We are thrilled to bring fans – both new and old – this latest film from series creator Akira Toriyama,” said Gen Fukunaga, CEO and founder of FUNimation. “Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’ is a visually stunning movie and offers even more action and comedy than Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods.”
“Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection ‘F’” is the 20th film in the Dragon Ball franchise, which first debuted in North America in 1986. The new movie showcases the return of Frieza – one of the greatest villains in all of anime. Now resurrected from death, Frieza embarks on plans to take his revenge on the Z Fighters of Earth. Goku and Vegeta once again face their nemesis together, but this time it is a fight for Earth’s very survival.
