http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/06/13/exclusive-sneak-peek-at-kingsglaive-final-fantasy-xv-movie

We have a brand new behind-the-scenes look for you today at Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV, the upcoming computer-animated feature film featuring the voices of Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul and Game of Thrones vets Sean Bean and Lena Headey. But that's not all.

In addition to its premiere on Blu-ray and Digital this fall, we can report Kingsglaive, from Sony Pictures Home Entertainment and Square Enix, will also be released in select movie theaters August 19.

The fully CG-animated movie will be released worldwide as a cross-media collaboration with the upcoming video game sequel, Final Fantasy XV.

I guess if it's releasing before the game is out, it's safe to watch before playing the game. Was wondering when the 'best' time to watch would be (before, after, during).

Whompa02 · Jun 13, 2016

Sweet. I'm in if it's playing in NYC

LambdaTeos · Jun 13, 2016

"nationwide"

Oh great, not coming to Mexico then...
urgh...

Z3M0G · Jun 13, 2016

Movie must be complete then. Or damn close to it. I wonder when production actually started.

strafer · Jun 13, 2016

sean bean?

guess one character will die then

bro its NYC, of course they'll be airing it here.

DeathSparks · Jun 13, 2016

Hope it's playing in Minnesota, though I doubt it.

2013 was apparently when they started, but similar pre-production scenes were produced years before that.

Sweet!

Wait, this is a Sony Pictures collab? So they're making bank on game sales and movie tickets and BR/DVD sales?

This is pretty neat though. It looks amazing, I just hope the story is good. The anime so far is good so if its as good as that, I will be somewhat satisfied.

Infernostew · Jun 13, 2016

Cool. I'll try to catch it in NYC

vincenth69 · Jun 13, 2016

Pretty sure Quebec City will be forgotten, as it has been for the Playstation E3 Experience for the past 3 years

I'm pretty sure we all know the fate of the character he's voicing.

dead dad

This movie will either be amazing fanservice or really, really fucking awful.

Sectorseven · Jun 13, 2016

Hopefully it's not one of those sad movie runs like Tekken where there isn't even a poster.

in either case, i sure hope it wasn't too expensive for se to produce

Jeels · Jun 13, 2016

Man, in theaters...hopefully they know how to make it work this time, don't want another Spirits Within situation...

TheChocoboCadet · Jun 13, 2016

It's going to be impossible for me to see Luna as anything other than a shallow, manipulative woman who cares only for her children

Philippo · Jun 13, 2016

No love for EU.

You should watch Sarah Connor's Chronicles. She only care for her child and kills robots all the time

The Spirits Within was supposed to be a big budget blockbuster.

This is obviously just a limited release.

MultiJhonny · Jun 13, 2016

Cool stuff! Looking forward to it. Hope it comes close

kayos90 · Jun 13, 2016

Which theaters?

Samimista · Jun 13, 2016

Hopefully, I can avoid spoilers until then.

Not revealed yet.

PancakeAlmighty · Jun 13, 2016

I hope in some weird twist of fate it plays in the UK, 1 so I can see it on the big screen and 2. so I know whether I want to get the deluxe edition with the movie and potentially save myself a lot of money

Dark_castle · Jun 13, 2016

Cool animation and effects can only get you so far. Hopefully the story, characters and writing are decent, unlike say Advent Children, which was terrible in those aspects.

muteki · Jun 13, 2016

I'd love to see in a theater but I doubt they will be a screening anywhere near me.

Classic_Gs · Jun 13, 2016

I am really excited for this and it looks impressive!

Tambini · Jun 13, 2016

I'd rather watch it on blu ray

Lights and Waves · Jun 13, 2016

Why doesn't it have the same voice actors from the video game though?

Go_Ly_Dow · Jun 13, 2016

I cannot fucking wait!

Kagari · Jun 13, 2016

Please come to Indianapolis.

Because they got better Hollywood actors apparently.

... But yeah it's still pretty stupid. I enjoy consistency as well.

This story doesn't have convoluted lore as its foundation. I expect it to have much better writing than AC by default.

Also Ohio. (Yeah right.)

That's wayyy to early to say.
We already have kingdoms lore, archeans/astral shards cosmic lore and etro/whatever that was retooled into lore.
I think the chances for it to be convulted are all there.

Tar-Miriel · Jun 13, 2016

"select theaters"..... will probably have yo go to dc to see it

LowParry · Jun 13, 2016

Please come here!

chozen · Jun 13, 2016

The blu-ray comes with my collectors edition, but the movie comes out before the game D:

Thabass · Jun 13, 2016

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!

pls come to Boston

YunFang1130 · Jun 13, 2016

Please come to Tennessee!

YankeeDonB · Jun 13, 2016

Still psyched for this but very unlikely to go to a theater for it. Wonder if it will be available to stream on 8/19 as well....

Valonquar · Jun 13, 2016

It's....warm.

vainglorious · Jun 13, 2016

Boston plz.

pikablu · Jun 13, 2016

I'm down if in Atlanta or South Carolina.

Go_Ly_Dow · Jun 13, 2016

I'll check this out in Japan!

Only in Japanese, though. :/

If is anything like AC then it would be one awkward and cringy experience
