Cool news and more Koike's Lupin film is awesome. I enjoy his take on hard-boiled Lupin that reminds me earlier Masaaki Osumi's darker direction of Lupin episodes.

Unlike last two films, I guess this won't be much action oriented so I am curious how he will handle this. Whatever, I have a good feeling as recent Lupin contents have been great.

I was hoping this would be a Zenigata film. But I enjoy Koike's Lupin so that's a minor matter for me.

Yesss, more Koike goodness. I was expecting something about Zenigata, but Fujiko is great too. Can't wait.

It is not clear if this is the same one that announced in January. "Winter 2019" hasn't come yet (in movie sense, winter could meant December of this year).

Thanks :) I'll hope that they are not the same, so we can have two Lupin movies this year!
