Chihiro finds her way home in Spirited Away stage play movie trailer
The theatrical release of the gorgeous Spirited Away stage play now has a hauntingly beautiful trailer — and an official release date. This first trailer highlights some of the movie’s most memorable characters and moments, like Chihiro meeting the mysterious spirit No-Face and the six-armed Kamajī, who operates the boiler room of the bath house. It’s set to some of the movie’s iconic score and is just absolutely breathtaking for something that’s only 41 seconds long.
