Original 'Ghost In The Shell' Returns to UK Cinemas in January

After the huge success of the Akira cinema screenings earlier this year, Manga UK are bringing one of their other biggest hits of all-time back to the big screen. For one night only, the 1995 cyberpunk classic Ghost In The Shell will be back in cinemas in the UK and Ireland.

The date of the screenings is January 25th 2017, and more than 80 venues are taking part. The current list of screenings is below (although it's always possible more will be added depending on demand). The film has been digitally remastered and will be showing in a mix of English dubbed and subtitled formats, depending on the venue.


Mamoru Oshii's adaptation of Masamune Shirow's seminal manga is one of the most influential anime ever made, and considered a classic of both animation and science-fiction. The franchise has really been in the spotlight once again lately, thanks to the upcoming (contentious) Hollywood adaptation. So this will be the perfect time to revisit this iconic film as it was truly meant to be seen. And if you've never seen it before... what better way to experience it for the first time?

Tickets are available from here.

All Screenings take place Jan 25th 2017.
