Synopsis
20th Century Boys, the legendary bestselling comic series, was originally serialized in Shogakukan’s Big Comic Spirits magazine from issue number 4 of 1999 to issue number 33 of 2007. Up to the present the manga has sold 250 million-plus copies and has been translated in 12 countries; Holland, Belgium, Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Indonesia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, and Thailand. 20th Century Boys will also be released in the United States, beginning in February 2009.

This complex tale spun by Naoki Urasawa had always been considered impossible for movie adaptation. The story spans over 50 years, crosses the globe and is both meticulous and complex. Previously producers have been scared off at the prospect of a movie adaptation …until December 2006, when the fateful news was announced; 20th Century Boys is officially slated as a feature movie trilogy!.

To meet the expectations of fans around the world, it was to be the biggest movie project ever to be made in Japan’s cinematic history. With the versatile filmmaker, Yukihiko Tsutsumi at the helm, 20TH CENTURY BOYS would be the first movie ever to be slated as a trilogy. With a 6-billion-yen budget and a cast of 300 stars, the trilogy would be shot over 1 year — an unprecedented period. Its production is not the only thing grand about the trilogy. 42 companies from 34 countries fought for the distribution rights. It became the first movie to hold a press conference at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

On August 30, 2008, 20TH CENTURY BOYS -CHAPTER 1- opened nationwide in Japan. Fans of the comic series were not the only ones who swarmed the theaters. The movie attracted a wide ranged audience from children to the elderly, becoming an instant mega-hit, beating its competitors in its first 2 weekends at the box office.
