Studio Ghibli’s The Red Turtle’s New Trailer

Life In The Ocean

♦Studio Ghibli’s The Red Turtle, out this spring, has just released a trailer…

Through the story of a man shipwrecked on a tropical island inhabited by turtles, crabs and birds, The Red Turtle recounts the milestones in the life of a human being. Directed by Michael Dudok de Wit

Dudok de Wit co-wrote the screenplay with French director Pascale Ferran, best known for Lady Chatterley and Bird People. As exciting as it is knowing that Studio Ghibli is involved, this isn’t exactly a “new Ghibli movie”. The latest report (via Kotaku) states that Dudok de Wit temporarily relocated to Tokyo to finish the story and storyboards, with Takahta overseeing everything. However, the film was animated in France.
