posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Taiwanese film distributor Bees Factory announced last week that the live-action film of Ken Wakui's Tokyo Revengers manga will open in Taiwan on September 10.
Warner Bros. Japan previously announced that the film will open in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Thailand.
The film opened in Japan on July 9. The film was slated to open in Japan last October, but was delayed to 2021 due to the effects of the spread of the new coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in Japan. The production halted filming in April 2020 due to COVID-19.
The film earned 696,434,440 yen (about US$6.31 million) in its first three days to top the Japanese box office in its opening weekend. The film has sold a cumulative total of 1.66 million tickets for 2,259,861,460 yen (about US$20.50 million).
Tsutomu Hanabusa (live-action Kakegurui, Miseinen dakedo Kodomo ja Nai) directed the film. Rock band SUPER BEAVER performed the film's theme song "Namae o Yobu yo" (I'll Call Your Name).
