FF7 Advent Children Gets Theatrical Run Ahead of Rebirth Launch
- Oops!Something went wrong.Please try again later.
Before there was a PlayStation 4 remake that blew the doors off its own canon, Final Fantasy VII lived on through various spinoffs that expanded the world of the classic RPG. One of those was Advent Children, the 2005 CG film which followed on from the events of the original game. If you’ve never seen it, or it’s been forever since you have, you’re in luck—it’s getting a brief return to theaters next year.
Earlier in the week, Square Enix revealed it would screen Advent Children in Japanese theaters from January 19, 2024 through February 1. This’ll be the 2021 remaster (aka the Complete version that runs in 4K) playing, and it’ll be the first time this specific version is getting a theatrical run. Social media users spotted that the movie will be coming stateside a few weeks later on February 21, though at time of writing, it’s not clear how long it’ll play here in the US. Considering the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the following week on February 29, one has to reason that it won’t be that long of a run.
