Hi all!

For those of us who are late to the cult of Miyazaki and for those of you who have been in the know for years, this is great news. Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea is set to appear in North American theaters in Summer 2009! That’s only… half a year away!!
John Lasseter from Disney is producing the release, as he did for Howl’s Moving Castle and Spirited Away.
The cast that’s been announced is nothing short of star studded… Matt Damon, Tina Fey, Cate Blanchett, Liam Neeson, Lily Tomlin, Betty White, and Cloris Leachman among them.
How cool is that? I’m excited. No dates announced, but I can guarantee most of my household (if not all) will be there as close to opening day as possible. 🙂
Thanks go to Scott Green at Ain’t It Cool News for this fantastic information!

I am really looking forward toward this one too. I have heard the Japanese version is interesting. All of his past stuff is classic anime..
