JAM Thailand Opens Gridman Universe Film in Thailand on September 7

Thai film distributor Japan Anime Movie (JAM) Thailand began streaming a Thai-subtitled trailer for Gridman Universe, a crossover film of the SSSS.GRIDMAN and SSSS.DYNAZENON anime, on Wednesday. The trailer reveals that JAM Thailand will open the film in Thailand on September 7.

The film opened in Japan on March 24. The film screened in 151 theaters, and had the highest per-screen average revenue for films that screened in more than 100 theaters that weekend.

The film stars a returning cast from SSSS.GRIDMAN and SSSS.DYNAZENON.

Akira Amemiya returned to direct the film at studio Trigger. Other returning staff members include scriptwriter Keiichi Hasegawa, character designer Masaru Sakamoto, and composer Shiro Sagisu.

The SSSS.GRIDMAN anime was the first anime in the "Gridman Universe." The 12-episode series premiered in October 2018. The anime was a collaboration between the anime studio Trigger and Tsuburaya Productions — the creator of the Ultraman franchise and the original 1993-1994 live-action tokusatsu (special-effects) series Denkō Chōjin Gridman.

SSSS.DYNAZENON premiered in April 2021 and aired for 12 episodes.
