LOS ANGELES and HOUSTON, TX — JUNE 11, 2026 — Both anime fans and film buffs alike will receive an early treat this October with today’s news that Iconic Events Releasing and AMC Global Media’s HIDIVE will present the new 4K restoration of the critically acclaimed samurai film Ninja Scroll in North American theaters. The limited theatrical release of Ninja Scroll 4K will screen on October 4, 5 & 7 across the U.S. and Canada, and represents HIDIVE’s and Iconic Events Releasing’s second Ninja Scroll partnership following their wildly successful 30th Anniversary re-release of the film in 2024. As a special teaser, a brand-new 4K theatrical trailer for Ninja Scroll was revealed as part of today’s announcement and can be seen on YouTube. Written and directed by Yoshiaki Kawajiri, Ninja Scroll was originally released in 1993 and is now considered a truly seminal work in anime filmmaking. The 4K restoration of Ninja Scroll was produced by AMC Global Media’s Sentai under the supervision of Director Yoshiaki Kawajiri and was screened for this first time earlier this year at its world premiere during the 76th Annual Berlinale international film festival. The digital adaptation was a painstaking restoration and remastering of the movie — a meticulous process that involved a 4K scan (3840 × 2160 pixels) of the original 35mm negative, then repairing any damage and lastly performing color correction to create an archival quality digital master of the film. Tickets sales day for the Ninja Scroll 4K limited theatrical release will be announced soon with details on when both advance tickets and the official website will launch. Advance tickets will be available via both the official website and participating theater box offices.

Rights include The United States, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. The film will world premiere at the Tribeca Festival on Saturday, June 6, and will have a theatrical release this Fall. BREEDER follows an eccentric poodle breeder who lures a broke college student to her remote ranch with a promise of research funding. But, as he soon learns, there’s a catch. “Independent Film Company and Shudder have always been a dream home for us. We’re thrilled to partner with them to bring BREEDER to audiences following its world premiere at Tribeca. As conversations around eugenics continue to resurface, our film confronts those ideas through the eyes of a deranged poodle breeder,” said writer-director Alex Goyette. “BREEDER is the kind of movie that makes you lean forward and ask, ‘How did they get away with this?’” said Mark Ward of IFC Entertainment Group. “It’s provocative and constantly surprises you just when you think you’ve figured it out. We knew the moment we saw it that audiences will be talking about it long after they leave the theater, and we can’t wait to shock audiences on the big screen later this year.” BREEDER is produced by Ian Start, Byron Ashley, Brian Mitchell, Chris Wilkinson, and K. Asher Levin, and executive produced by Jeremy Ross, Ronnie Exley, Steven Schneider, Ryan Marchant, and Tyson Call. The film was financed by Rabbits Black and Four J Films. The deal was negotiated by Mark Ward for Independent Film Company and Shudder with UTA on behalf of the filmmakers.

The eight‑episode series is set to premiere this August, exclusively on We TV and All Reality. Age gap relationships are layered with complexities of power dynamics, family pressure, stereotypes, financial imbalance and yes, true love. Experience, money and life stage are powerful forces that can turn passion into pressure, sexual chemistry into combustion and ultimately, love into hate. Can couples separated by decades truly build a lasting love, or is the writing already on the wall? Age Inappropriate, seeks to uncover the answer, exploring the how and why behind what makes these relationships work – or fall completely apart. Age Inappropriate is executive produced by Mark Herwick and Simon Andreae for Range Studios, alongside showrunners Shahram Qureshi and Noah Moskin. Jason Kozel also serves as producer.

Since its debut on May 18, the murder mystery series had made history as Acorn TV’s #1 series launch of all time in subscriber acquisition and viewership. Starring and executive produced by Shields and co-starring Williamson (Sullivan’s Crossing) and Tom Cavanagh (The Flash, Ed), You’re Killing Me season one is currently streaming on Acorn TV with new episodes debuting every Monday through the season finale on Monday, June 22. Season two, which will again be set in the quaint Maine town of Founder’s Cove, will also consist of six, hour-long episodes and go into production later this year. “I am crazy happy we get to do a second season of You’re Killing Me,” shared Shields. “I’m thrilled to be collaborating once again with the talented Robin Bernheim and having the opportunity to act opposite Amalia Williamson and Tom Cavanagh has been a dream. Thank you to all the people at Acorn TV and the whole marketing and creative teams for helping shepherd this show to where it is today. I promise we will continue to deliver the show you all fell in love with… even if it Kills Me.” “You’re Killing Me has quickly become a breakout hit for Acorn TV – a series that blends sharp storytelling and irresistible twists, with Brooke’s singular presence at the center of it all,” said Dan McDermott, Chief Content Officer for AMC Global Media and President of AMC Studios. “We look forward to expanding the world she’s helped create, alongside the wonderful Robin Bernheim, for another season of this highly entertaining and bingeable new show, which has made history with Acorn TV’s deeply passionate and engaged audience as the platform’s #1 series launch of all time.” A six-part murder mystery, the first season of You’re Killing Me follows bestselling novelist Allie (Shields), who forms an unlikely alliance with an aspiring writer and podcaster Andi (Williamson), to find the killer of a close friend. Cavanagh stars as Jack, the new lead detective of the local Police Department and former city slicker who is trying to acclimate to the quirks of small-town life. You’re Killing Me is created by Robin Bernheim, known for successes such as Hallmark’s long-running drama When Calls the Heart and Mystery 101 and Netflix’s Princess Switch trilogy and Mother of the Bride – on which she and Shields last collaborated.

The collection, THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO, consists of 16 unique pieces and reinterprets some of PALOMO’s most recognizable looks, incorporating the themes and aesthetic of the series with a contemporary vision of gothic romanticism, drama and sensuality. THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO capsule collection will be available beginning Tuesday, May 26 on the brand’s official website, https://palomospain.com/ For the collection, which includes jackets, vests, dresses, capes, and more, Alejandro Gómez Palomo revisits some of the brand’s most representative silhouettes, fabrics and decorative elements, rendering them through the visual and emotional lens of the series. Lace, embroidery, sculptural tailoring, and dramatic volumes shape a proposal that blends historical references with a contemporary sensibility. “Designing this capsule for The Vampire Lestat became an exploration of a shared universe, where the theatrical language of PALOMO meets Lestat’s magnetic, provocative spirit. There’s an instinctive dialogue between the brand’s romantic, expressive identity and his emotional complexity, each piece telling a story that blurs the boundary between fashion and character, elegance and rebellion.” says Alejandro Gómez Palomo, Founder and Creative Director of PALOMO. “The opportunity to marry a series with such strong global appeal with an international designer who is driving fashion and culture today, really excited us,” said Kim Granito, Chief Marketing Officer for AMC Global Media. “PALOMO’s capsule collection is a celebration of style, identity, and the lush, provocative world of the series that feels as daring and unforgettable as Lestat himself.” Said Maurizio Vitale, Head of Marketing, Streaming and Brand Strategy at AMC Global Media Iberia & Latin America: “THE VAMPIRE LESTAT x PALOMO demonstrates the natural connection between Lestat’s emotional and theatrical universe and Palomo’s creativity. It is significant that this collaboration was born in Spain together with one of the most unique and influential designers in international fashion, demonstrating how Spanish talent can reinterpret a global franchise in a contemporary, sophisticated, and culturally relevant way.” In the new rock and roll centric season, titled The Vampire Lestat, Lestat (Sam Reid) goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population. In addition to Reid, The Vampire Lestat stars Jacob Anderson,Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle and is executive produced by award-winning producer Mark Johnson, creator, writer and showrunner Rolin Jones, Hannah Moscovitch, along with Christopher Rice and the late Anne Rice.
