The 19th issue of Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine revealed information about the newest animated film in the Naruto saga, Boruto: Naruto the Movie. The film will be released in Japanese theaters on August 7, 2015. Kishimoto, the manga's author, will be the chief production supervisor and created the character designs for the film.

The film will focus on Uzumaki Boruto, son of Naruto and Hinata, and also Uchiha Sarada, daughter of Sasuke and Sakura. Boruto will be voiced by Yuuko Sanpei, whose main works include Selim Bradley (Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood), Yuri Chvojka (Shakugan no Shana), Jean Russell (D.Gray-man), among others. Kokoro Kikuchi will voice Sarada; the voice actress previously voiced Boruto himself at the end of the film "The Last".

The movie poster (below) shows a reference to the meaning of Boruto's name (Screw), which honors his uncle Neji (Screw), with the screws in the title and the wrench held by him.

"In his eyes we see his special characteristic. His clothes are typical attire of the Uchiha clan.".

There is no release date yet for the film in Brazilian cinemas, but it's something that can't be ruled out with the arrival of The Last on Brazilian screens!
