GKIDS screens 2005 film in theaters in September

GKIDS streamed the official trailer for the 4K restoration of director Nobuhiro Yamashita's 2005 Linda Linda Linda film on Wednesday, and it reveals the September release in select theaters.

The company screened the remaster of the film in celebration of the 20th anniversary at the Tribeca Film Festival, which ran from June 4-15 in New York City. The film will also have a home release in 2025.

The film originally debuted in Japan in 2005, and Viz Pictures released the film on DVD in 2007. The film follows an all-girls high school rock band, who must recruit a new lead vocalist before their high school festival in three days.

The film stars Bae Doona (The Host, Broker), Aki Maeda (Battle Royale), Yu Kashii (Death Note), and Shiori Sekine (Base Ball Bear band member).

It features original tracks composed by James Iha of The Smashing Pumpkins, song covers from THE BLUE HEARTS, and songs from Base Ball Bear.

The film also inspired the name of the band The Linda Lindas.
