The official website of the Kidou Senshi Gundam: Cucuruz Doan no Shima (Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan's Island) announced on Thursday the main cast members and a synopsis. The anime is scheduled to open in Japanese theaters on June 3.

Synopsis
After withstanding the defensive battle at Jaburo, the Earth Federation Forces launched a major counterattack to capture Odessa, home of Zeon's Earth Attack Force. The White Base, with Amuro and his crew aboard, heads toward Belfast on a final supply run before the operation. While en route, the White Base is tasked with another mission—to clean up remaining enemy forces on an uninhabited island known as "The Island of No Return." Amuro and his crew embark on a search for the remaining spies, but instead find a group of children and a Zaku that shouldn't be there. After losing his Gundam in battle, Amuro encounters a man who calls himself Cucuruz Doan. Will Amuro be able to uncover the secrets of the island, find his Gundam again, and escape safely...?

This is the announced new series that I was interested in the least since this is just something based off of a single episode in 0079

But its nice that they managed to bring back some of the OG cast though

Han Megumi wasn't even born when Gundam aired

I'm just going to take a moment to remind everyone that as it turns out, her mother was the original voice of Lalah. Make of that info what you will.

to be extra elitist here, Sayla's original VA who played her in 0079 died a long time ago, Han Megumi wasn't even born when Gundam aired

YAS not doing any Gundam anime for all those years has been such a missed opportunity. His character designs work great on digital.

Can Furuya and Furukawa even pull their roles at their age 40+ years later?
