It will be the subtitled version (Japanese audio, English subtitles) and it sounds like fun. I missed it when the film originally debuted in 2015/2016, but the trailer looks quite good.
A must-watch film from the acclaimed creator of Summer Wars, Wolf Children, Belle, and the upcoming film Scarlet, Mamoru Hosoda's The Boy and The Beast follows Kyuta, a young orphan living on the streets of Shibuya, who stumbles into a fantastic world of beasts, and taken in by Kumatetsu, a gruff, rough-around-the-edges warrior beast who's been searching for the perfect apprentice.

Taron Egerton scared of 'jinxing' dream project
Taron Egerton doesn't want to "jinx" his dream project. The 35-year-old actor dreams of turning one of his favourite musicals into a film - but Taron doesn't want to jinx the project before he gets a green light. The Hollywood star told People: "There's a musical I love. "I daren't tell you what it is, because I don't want to jinx it. There's a really classic American musical that I really love that I would love to turn into a film. It's never been turned into a film and I think it would be amazing." Despite this, Taron admits that he'll have to overcome a series of obstacles before he can get the project off the ground. He said: "I'm really, really, really hoping that I can achieve that. It's very, very hard and the estate is super protective about it and rightly so. "If I manage it, you'll know about it and I think it would be incredible. But I will not jinx it by telling you what it is because I've been trying for some time." Meanwhile, Taron has played down talk that he could replace Daniel Craig as James Bond, insisting he's too "messy" for the role. The movie star believes there are "so many cool, younger actors" who would be better suited to the coveted role. Asked about the possibility of playing Bond, he told Collider: "I don't think I'm a good choice for it. I think I'm too messy for that. "I think I'm not — I really love James Bond and particularly Daniel Craig's tenure. But I think I wouldn't be good at it, and I think there's so many cool, younger actors who would be great for it. I think it would be wasted on me, probably." Taron also observed that leading the Bond franchise is "quite an undertaking". He said: "That's not to say that I don't have aspirations and plans and also that I wouldn't be interested in doing something that's more commercial, because of course I would. I think I'm a period in my life where, as you say, I've been probably following the things that speak to me on a creative level a little bit more, but, you know, I'm sure I won't feel that way forever. "But James Bond is quite an undertaking and I think, one, as far as I'm aware, nobody's asking me to do it."
