About the Film:

One Piece Film: Red is the latest feature film based on characters from the best-selling Weekly Shonen JUMP manga series about a crew of pirates sailing the seas in search of a legendary treasure. The series’ original creator Eiichiro Oda is overseeing the project as Executive Producer, and also designed the original characters for this brand-new story, including Uta, the most beloved singer in the world - and the daughter of Shanks, the legendary pirate who inspired the series’ protagonist Monkey D. Luffy.

One Piece Film: Red is directed by Goro Taniguchi, who previously helmed One Piece: Defeat Him! The Pirate Ganzack!, the very first One Piece animation, with a screenplay by Tsutomu Kuroiwa (One Piece Film: Gold).
