"What do I do with the time I have left?" GKids has unveiled an official US trailer for the long lost Miyazaki documentary titled Never-Ending Man: Hayao Miyazaki, which they will be releasing in US theaters later this year (via Awards Circuit). The doc was originally made for TV and released in Japan back in 2016, but has been awaiting an international release ever since then. Never-Ending Man: Hayao Miyazaki spends intimate time with Miyazaki-san himself, examining his time since retirement in 2013. It follows his very first attempts to use computers for animation. The big question it asks: "Can an old master who thinks he's past his prime shine once again?" This film fits right in with that other wonderful Ghibli doc, Kingdom of Dreams and Madness. I can't wait to see this, I've been waiting patiently for it..! Finally coming to theaters.
