Move over Zelda, it’s the rumored Honkai Star Rail movie I want to see next
by .

Every so often, Hoyoverse announces a big ol’ project that’ll be coming in the future. The latest of which is rumored to be a Honkai Star Rail movie, spearheaded by an experienced anime director.
This is only a rumor, and it’s questionable at that, so please take it with a few pinches of salt. A post on Reddit shows a WhatsApp screenshot claiming that an animated Honkai Star Rail movie is “in the works by Mappa”. Mappa is a Japanese animation studio, with titles such as Chainsaw Man, Yuri!!! On Ice, and Jujutsu Kaisen under its belt.
The leaker previously correctly stated the name of the Chainsaw Man movie’s director (Tatsuya Yoshihara) almost a year before it got an official confirmation, so there may be some truth here. Extra questionable info comes from user Funny_Bag_9245 on Reddit, claiming that the movie will be ‘similar to Cyberpunk’, will get an announcement during the third anniversary stream, and has Yuzuru Tachikawa (of Mob Psycho 100 and Attack on Titan fame) as director.
