With the sci-fi anime feature due to hit North American theatrical release on Friday, July 14, Crunchyroll today dropped a new clip from PSYCHO-PASS: Providence. The footage shows an action packed scene featuring fan favorites Akane and Kagami dropping in to confront a mystery threat.
Synopsis: January 2118. Chief Inspector of the Criminal Investigation Department, Akane Tsunemori, receives a report of an incident on a foreign vessel — the body of Professor Milicia Stronskaya has been discovered. Behind the incident is a group known as the Peacebreakers, a foreign paramilitary organization and a new outside threat who are targeting the professor’s research papers known as the “Stronskaya Document.”
Reunited with Shinya Kogami, a former fugitive from the Criminal Investigation Department, Akane grapples with a case that quickly escalates beyond their expectations. The Stronskaya Papers could reveal a truth that would shake Japan’s government, and even the Sibyl System, to the core.
It is in this untold story that the missing link is revealed.
The English dub cast features Kate Oxley (Akane Tsunemori), Robert McCollum (Shinya Kogami), Jessie James (Nobuchika Ginoza), Cherami Leigh (Mika Shimotsuki), Mike McFarland (Teppei Sugo), Z. Charles Bolton (Sho Hinakawa), Lindsay Seidel (Yayoi Kunizuka), Lydia Mackay (Shion Karanomori), Erin Kelly Noble (Frederica Hanashiro), Dallas Reid (Arata Shindo), Eduardo Vildasol (Kei Mikhail) and Stephanie Young (Dominator).
The film is directed by Naoyoshi Shiotani from a script by Makoto Fukami and series composer Tow Ubukata. Original story concept written by Gen Urobuchi. Original character Design by Akira Amano, character design by Naoyuki Onda, music by Yugo Kanno.
Release in NorAm by Crunchyroll in partnership with Sony Pictures Entertainment, PSYCHO-PASS: Providence had sneak-peek fan screenings on Tuesday (English dub) and Thursday (English subtitled) ahead of the Friday release.
