It looks like 2017 is going to be a great time for some fans in Japan of the Lupin the 3rd franchise as the Castle of Cagliostro is getting a limited MX4D release in January. While specific dates are not set yet, it’s a film that could benefit well from the additional immersion into the process with what it does, though it’s something that’s certainly not going to be for everyone just like a lot of people can’t handle what 3D brings to viewing a film. Check out the promotional spot for it below!
You can see the screening list here.
Plot concept: After a successful robbery leaves famed thief Lupin III and his partner Jigen with nothing but a large amount of fake money, the so called “Goat Bills”, he decides to track down the counterfeiter responsible – and steal any other treasures he may find in the Castle of Cagliostro, including the ‘damsel in distress’ he finds imprisoned there. However, as usual, Inspector Zenigata is hot on his trail.
Tracking the legendary counterfeits known as “Goat Bills,” international thief Arsene Lupin III arrives at the Duchy of Cagliostro. Once there, he nearly rescues a damsel in distress from the Regent’s guards. Following his failure, Lupin takes it upon himself to save her from captivity.
