Cineplex Pictures and GKIDS are bringing the next Jujutsu Kaisen chapter to Canadian cinemas this month. Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution offers fans the Shibuya Incident storyline from the second season alongside the first two episodes of the third season, which premieres next month. The show itself is an adaptation of Gege Akutami’s ongoing Weekly Shonen Jump manga series of the same name. Execution launched in Japanese cinemas on November 5th. This marks the third theatrical event in the franchise, following Jujutsu Kaisen 0 and Hidden Inventory / Premature Death.
Jujutsu Kaisen: Execution was directed by Shōta Goshozono at MAPPA. The screenplay was written by Hiroshi Seko. Yoshimasa Terui composed the score.
A veil abruptly descends over the busy Shibuya area amid the bustling Halloween crowds, trapping countless civilians inside. Satoru Gojo, the strongest jujutsu sorcerer, steps into the chaos. But lying in wait are curse users and spirits scheming to seal him away.
Yuji Itadori, accompanied by his classmates and other top-tier jujutsu sorcerers, enters the fray in an unprecedented clash of curses — the Shibuya Incident.
In the aftermath, ten colonies across Japan are transformed into dens of curses in a plan orchestrated by Noritoshi Kamo, the most wicked sorcerer in history. As the deadly Culling Game starts, Special Grade sorcerer Yuta Okkotsu is assigned to carry out Yuji’s execution for his perceived crimes.
The desperate confrontation between Satoru Gojo’s two beloved students comes to the big screen with an early preview. Be the first to experience Yuji and Yuta’s fateful battle with the hotly anticipated kickoff to Season 3 in theatres nationwide.
The film will open on December 5th, with advanced IMAX screenings on December 3rd. It will be screened in Japanese with English subtitles as well as dubbed into English.
