with a bang! As we mentioned a few weeks ago in our previous article,
" Chainsaw Man the Movie: Reze Arc " will hit
theaters in Japan on September 19. But now there's more news: Sony
Pictures Entertainment has just announced that it has acquired the worldwide

Latin America (which would fall on the second date) have not yet been revealed,
so we'll have to stay tuned for future announcements.
