Kingdom 2 Live-Action Movie Sequel Trailer Reveals New Characters

The Kingdom 2 live-action movie sequel reveals new characters in the upcoming movie in a new Kingdom 2 trailer. The story of Kingdom is best known for the anime TV series, which is already on season 4 of Kingdom in 2022.
Now it’s gearing up for the release of the next live-action movie with a new teaser that whips up all the new characters jumping straight to the big screen. Hara’s original manga has been a huge success since its debut in Shueisha’s Weekly Young Jump.
It’s only gotten bigger with the release of the original anime adaptation (which is in the middle of its fourth season this spring). It also made its debut with its live-action movie image a few years ago.

This first live-action movie was such a success with the fans. Shortly afterwards, it was announced that the franchise will be getting a second feature. This new movie, called Kingdom II: To Distant Lands, will hit theaters across Japan later this summer.

Shunsuke Sato (who previously directed Bleach, Gantz and is currently attached to Legendary Pictures’ My Hero Academia film) is returning to direct the live-action Kingdom sequel. He co-wrote it with original series creator Yasuhira Hara and One Piece Film: Red writer Tsutomu Kuroiwa.
The theme song, “Ikiro”, will be performed by the popular band Mr Kids†
Kingdom 2 is based on Yasuhisa Hara’s manga series and is set during the Warring States period in China. The story portrays two young men, one of whom wants to become a top commander and the other emperor of China.
Unfortunately, while Kingdom II will hit Japanese theaters on July 16, there’s no word on whether it will get an international release. It happened in the first movie, so there’s a chance it might happen again!
